Ingredients

  • 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 8–12 breakfast sausage links or mini hot dogs
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (optional, for brushing)
  • 1 tbsp poppy seeds, sesame seeds, or everything seasoning (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles.
  3. Place a sausage link at the wide end of each triangle and roll toward the pointed end.
  4. Brush each roll with melted butter and sprinkle with desired toppings.
  5. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the dough is puffed and golden brown.
  6. Cool for a few minutes and serve warm with dipping sauces like maple mustard or ketchup.

Notes

  • Add a slice of cheese around the sausage for a cheesy version.
  • Brush with honey or maple syrup before baking for a sweet twist.
  • Add chili flakes or jalapeño for a spicy kick.
  • Use plant-based sausage for a vegetarian option.
  • Reheat in oven or toaster oven for best texture; microwave for quick warming.
