Ingredients

Scale

Dough:

  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk, warmed
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Filling:

  • 8 oz breakfast sausage
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter (for scrambling eggs)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (for eggs)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dough: In a large bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit until foamy (5–10 mins).
  2. Mix Dough: Add 1 egg, melted butter, and salt. Gradually mix in flour to form a dough.
  3. Knead: Knead until smooth (8–10 minutes), then cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  4. Cook Sausage: While dough rises, cook sausage in a skillet until browned. Drain and set aside.
  5. Scramble Eggs: In the same skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter and scramble 4 eggs with salt and pepper. Cook until just set.
  6. Prepare Rolls: Roll dough into a large rectangle. Cut into 12 equal squares. Fill each square with scrambled egg, sausage, and cheese. Fold and pinch to seal.
  7. Rise: Place rolls seam-side down on a baking sheet. Let rise again for 20–30 minutes.
  8. Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Beat remaining egg and brush on top of rolls. Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm.
