There’s no better smell than the delicious aroma of baking bread spreading through the house, especially when it’s stuffed with tasty sausage and creamy cheese. This recipe for baked sausage and cream cheese crescents celebrates the easy and comforting meals from the Midwest. When I was a child, these crescent-shaped pastries were always present at family events, frequently served during Sunday morning meals or special holiday breakfasts. They are simple to prepare, using traditional ingredients that are always in the kitchen, and they always succeed in gathering people around the table. Whether you are an experienced chef or just beginning to cook, these crescent rolls are a lovely reminder of home-cooked flavors.

These baked sausage and cream cheese pastries are flexible and go well with many different side dishes. Serve them hot with scrambled eggs and fresh fruit on the side for a filling breakfast. For a nice lunch, you can have them with a bowl of tomato soup you make at home or a fresh green salad with a zesty dressing. They also make a tasty snack with a variety of cheeses and pickles at your next party.

 

Sausage and Cream Cheese Croissants

Number of portions: 8

 

List of items needed to make a dish.

 

1 pound of pork sausage

1 package of cream cheese that weighs 8 ounces, softened.

2 tubes of crescent roll dough (8 oz each)

1/4 teaspoon of powdered garlic

1/4 teaspoon of powdered onion

1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper

1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese (if desired)

1 egg, whisked (to brush)

Instructions

Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) before using it.

In a big frying pan, cook the sausage on medium heat until it is brown and completely cooked, breaking it into small pieces while cooking. Remove extra grease.

In a bowl, mix together the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir until everything is mixed together. If you’re using cheddar cheese, mix it in now.

Open the crescent roll dough and divide it into triangles.

Put a spoonful of the sausage mix on the wider part of each triangle and roll it towards the narrower end, pressing the edges together to close.

Put the croissants on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.

Use the beaten egg to brush the tops for a shiny, golden look.

Put in the oven that has been heated beforehand for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent shapes turn golden brown.

Let it cool a bit before serving.

 

Different Types and Advice

For a spicier flavor, you can use hot sausage or add a bit of crushed red pepper flakes to the sausage mix. You can also try different types of cheese like pepper jack or mozzarella to give your own personal touch. If you like, you can use puff pastry instead of crescent roll dough for a flakier texture. For a tasty brunch twist, try adding some finely chopped bell peppers or green onions to the filling for an extra delicious taste.
