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.
This easy to make breakfast just uses 2 ingredients!
- Crescent Roll Dough Sheets – The crescent roll sheets make these breakfast pigs in a blanket so easy to make. If you cannot find the sheets use the traditional crescent rolls.
- Breakfast Sausage Links – Your favorite brand of breakfast sausage links.
This recipe is incredibly easy to make with very minimal prep work required.
STEP 1
In a skillet over medium low heat cook the sausage links.
STEP 2
Lay the crescent roll sheets out on a clean surface and cut into 20 equal pieces.
STEP 3

STEP 4
Bake for until the crescent roll dough is golden brown, about 10-12 minutes. Enjoy!
