Breakfast Ideas with Crescent Roll Dough

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But who wants to slave over a hot stove making a big meal every morning?

That’s why I love finding shortcuts in the kitchen to help cut down on my morning prep work! Using premade crescent roll dough is one of my favorite baking hacks.

Quick Filling Breakfast

With these simple breakfast ideas with crescent roll dough, you can prepare freshly baked pastries and casseroles for your family each morning with just a few minutes of prep work.

Using refrigerator dough in recipes is a great way to create something delicious other than just baking them like the directions say on the can.

You can create savory and sweet recipes when you "pop" open a can of crescent rolls. Let's think outside of the box and create exciting, delicious breakfast recipes.

Substitutions and Variations

• For most of these recipes featured here, you could substitute puff pastry. Just remember that once the dough is baked it will be flakier than using crescent rolls.
• You could also use crescent roll sheet dough. Which is great for making pizza with crescent rolls or a fruit tart.

• Fill the dough according to the recipe.
• Then roll up the triangles starting at the wide end.
