    ingredients to make turkey bacon and egg muffins


    📋Step by Step Instructions

    STEP 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    STEP 2: Spray the muffin tin with cooking spray.

    STEP 3: Open up a tube of crescent rolls. Remove the dough from the tube and unroll it. The dough is made of crescent triangles.

    STEP 4: Form each triangle into a muffin cup in the muffin tin. Make sure that there are no openings in the dough or the eggs will leak through.

    👩🏻‍🍳Expert Tips

    Tip 1: All ovens cook differently. Mine were done at 17 minutes. If the crescent roll dough starts to brown too much, you can place some foil over it while the eggs continue to cook.

    Tip 2: You can use chopped turkey sausage instead of turkey bacon.

    Tip 3: To make these a little healthy, you can use reduced-fat crescent rolls.
