Sausage Crescent Breakfast Bake
Ingredients
  • 1 (8 ounce) package bulk pork sausage
  • 1/2 (8 ounce) package Neufchatel cheese, softened
  • 1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 cup sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste (optional)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit, equivalent to 190 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, cook the sausage in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until it's nicely browned and has broken apart into small pieces, taking around 5 to 7 minutes; make sure to drain off any excess fat.
3
Add the Neufchatel cheese to the skillet and stir constantly until it's fully incorporated with the sausage, creating a smooth mixture. Remove the skillet from the heat source and set it aside for later use.
4
Unroll a package of crescent rolls and place half of them in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish. Ensure the seams are pressed together tightly to form a solid layer.
5
Top this layer of crescent rolls with the sausage-Neufchatel cheese mixture, followed by a generous sprinkling of Cheddar cheese.
6
Finish the dish off with the remaining crescent rolls, creating a layered effect.
7
Bake the entire assembly in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it's golden brown and fragrant.
8
Allow the dish to cool for 10 minutes before cutting it into 8 equal-sized squares.
