How to Make Sausage Cream Casserole
Step 1: Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess grease and set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Crescent Roll Base
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish. Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the dish, sealing the seams to form a solid crust.
Step 3: Make the Creamy Filling
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (or cream), and softened cream cheese until smooth. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Step 4: Assemble the Casserole
Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the crescent roll base. Pour the creamy egg mixture over the sausage, then top with shredded cheese.
Step 5: Bake
Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Step 6: Rest and Serve
Allow the casserole to rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This helps it firm up and makes serving easier.
