Breakfast Pigs in a Blanket

August 12, 2024 by Sky Pilgreen Leave a Comment

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Breakfast Pigs in a Blanket are created using just two ingredients: crescent dough and breakfast sausage links. They're ideal for school mornings, brunches, and can be easily frozen for later use.

Similar to the traditional pigs in a blanket, these treats are crafted with crescent dough, but instead of lil smokies or hotdogs, they're filled with breakfast sausage links, making them an excellent choice for breakfast. I like to batch bake them and then freeze some for a quick and easy breakfast on busy school mornings.

Here are some more recipes that are great for batch baking and freezing. Strawberry Blueberry Muffins, Baked Oatmeal Cups 2 Ways, Orange Poppy Seed Muffins.
