How to Make Crescent Roll Egg Cups (Quiche)
Spray your muffin pan with non-stick spray and preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Add one triangle of the crescent roll dough to each muffin cup making sure there aren’t any gaps. Press the dough together as needed.
Whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and set aside.
Add the cooked breakfast sausage to each muffin cup, dividing evenly between the 8 cups.
Spoon the egg mixture over each cup, you will use about 4-5 tablespoons for each one.
Top each quiche with cheese.
Bake for about 25 minutes and allow the muffin quiches to cool for 5 minutes before taking them out of the tin. This is to allow them to set up so they don’t fall apart.
Crescent Quiche Variations
I mentioned earlier that this recipe is forgiving. I’ve got a few ideas to get you started. If you do add extra ingredients, just put a little in each cup so it doesn’t bake over.
Feel free to add your favorite spices for a different flavor (a pinch of garlic powder takes these over the top).
