Breakfast Sliders with Crescent Dough, Egg, Sausage, and Gravy Recipe
Introduction
Breakfast sliders are a delicious and convenient way to start your day. These bite-sized sandwiches combine fluffy scrambled eggs, savory turkey sausage, melted cheese, and creamy country gravy, all nestled between golden crescent roll rounds. Perfect for a quick breakfast or brunch gathering.
Ingredients
- 2 cans (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent roll dough sheets
- 3 large eggs, scrambled
- 1 cup shredded Colby-Jack cheese
- 12 small turkey sausage patties, cooked
- 1 cup country gravy
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease two large baking sheets with cooking spray.
- Step 2: Remove the crescent roll dough from both cans and unroll it onto the prepared baking sheets. Using a 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut 12 rounds from each dough sheet, creating a total of 24 rounds.
- Step 3: Place the dough rounds on the baking sheets and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Remove from the oven and transfer the rounds to a cooling rack to cool for about 5 minutes.
- Step 4: Assemble each slider by topping 12 of the baked crescent rounds with 2 tablespoons of scrambled eggs, a sprinkle of shredded cheese, one cooked turkey sausage patty, and 1 tablespoon of country gravy.
- Step 5: Place the remaining 12 crescent rounds on top to complete each slider. Serve warm and enjoy your breakfast sliders.
Tips & Variations

- Substitute Colby-Jack cheese with cheddar or pepper jack for different cheese profiles.
- Add a slice of tomato or a few spinach leaves for added freshness.

Storage
Store leftover breakfast sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a microwave or oven until warmed through. For best texture, reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes to keep the crescent rolls crispy.

- 12 small turkey sausage patties, cooked
- 1 cup country gravy
Instructions
- Prepare oven and dough rounds: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease two large baking sheets with cooking spray. Remove the crescent roll dough from both cans and unroll each sheet onto the prepared baking sheets. Using a 2-inch-round cookie cutter, cut 12 rounds from each dough sheet to make a total of 24 rounds.
- Bake the dough rounds: Place the baking sheets in the oven and bake the dough rounds for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Once baked, carefully transfer the rounds to a cooling rack and allow them to cool for 5 minutes.
- Assemble the sliders: To assemble each slider, take 12 baked crescent roll rounds as the base. Top each base round with approximately 2 tablespoons of scrambled eggs, a sprinkle of shredded Colby-Jack cheese, one cooked turkey sausage patty, and about 1 tablespoon of country gravy.
- Finish and serve: Place the remaining 12 crescent roll rounds on top of each assembled slider to form sandwich-style bites. Serve the breakfast sliders warm for the best taste and texture. Enjoy your delicious, savory breakfast treats!
Notes
- You can substitute turkey sausage patties with any other cooked breakfast sausage or even bacon for a different flavor.
- To save time, use pre-made scrambled eggs from a deli or prepare scrambled eggs in advance.
- If you prefer a spicier slider, add a dash of hot sauce or some sliced jalapeños to your assembly.
- For a vegetarian twist, replace sausage patties with sautéed mushrooms or vegetarian sausage alternatives.
- Ensure the crescent roll dough is handled gently to maintain flakiness after baking.
