How to Make the Recipe
Now, let’s dive into the steps to create this scrumptious breakfast casserole:

- Unroll the crescent dough and place it into the pan, using your fingers to pinch the dough closed. This will form a lovely crust for your casserole.
- Set the pan into the air fryer and cook at 305 degrees F for 4-6 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
- While the dough is baking, grab a small mixing bowl and beat the eggs until they are well combined.
- Once the dough is ready, sprinkle the cooked ground sausage on top of the baked dough, and then pour the beaten eggs over it.
- Return the pan to the air fryer and cook for another 4 to 8 minutes at 305 degrees F. You’ll know it’s done when the eggs are set.
- Finally, sprinkle the shredded cheese on top and let it melt for a minute or two.
- Plate, serve, and enjoy your delicious breakfast casserole!
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your casserole turns out perfectly:
- Feel free to customize this recipe by adding vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for extra flavor and nutrition.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, consider using spicy sausage or adding some hot sauce to the eggs.
- For a creamier texture, you can mix in a splash of milk or cream with the eggs.
- Make sure to check the doneness of the eggs; they should be fully set but not overcooked.
