This is a scrumptious breakfast or brunch casserole. It has all the elements of breakfast in one dish and is easy and fast to make. It is so good that all bridal and baby showers at my work are now planned in the morning and I'm asked to bring this as refreshment!

A slice of Crescent Sausage Casserole with eggs.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Ok, TWO bricks of cream cheese may sound like a lot to you... and you'd be right! But it's this healthy amount of cheese that makes this crescent sausage casserole so decadently creamy and rich. Easy to throw together, the hot sausage gives the casserole a punch of flavor but the cream cheese mellows out the spice. Enjoy this casserole for any meal, but it's really delicious alongside eggs for a nice brunch.

How To Make crescent sausage casserole

Test Kitchen Tips

If you can find sheets of crescent dough at your grocery store, this is the perfect recipe to use them and makes prep even easier. If not, the standard rolls will work, just press the seams together as best you can.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Cook the sausages in a skillet until done and drain off the grease. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Step 3

Add the cream cheese to the cooked, warm sausage, and mix together.
Step 4

Unroll one can of crescent rolls and spread it out in the bottom of the baking dish, pressing the seams together.
Step 5

Spread the sausage mixture over the top of the crescent roll layer.
Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the sausage layer.
Step 7

Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and place it on top.
Step 8

Bake the casserole until golden brown on top; approximately 20-25 minutes.
