Tips for Perfect Sausage and Cheese Crescent Rolls
Drain the Sausage Well:
Make sure to drain the cooked sausage thoroughly to prevent the rolls from becoming greasy.
Don’t Overstuff:
Use about 1-2 tablespoons of filling per crescent roll to avoid the filling spilling out during baking.
Seal the Edges:
Pinch the seams of the crescent rolls tightly to keep the filling inside while baking.
Add Flavor:
Mix in 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, or 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika with the sausage for extra flavor.
Use Parchment Paper:
Line the baking dish with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
Serve with Dipping Sauce:
Pair the rolls with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or honey mustard for dipping.
