Ingredients

• 2 (8 oz) cans of crescent rolls
• 1 pound of breakfast sausage
• 4 oz of cream cheese, softened (half an 8 oz brick)
• 11/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese (we used a sharp white cheddar)
• 1 cup of pecan pieces
• maple syrup for drizzling

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray lightly with cooking spray. Set aside.

3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown up your breakfast sausage until it’s crumbly. Once it’s cooked and crumbled, stir in your cream cheese and shredded cheddar. Stir just a few minutes until it’s all melted together. Next, stir in your pecan pieces. Remove skillet from heat.

4. On a cutting board, unroll your crescent roll triangles. Take each triangle and add a tablespoon or so to the center. Roll it up and place it on your prepared baking sheet. Repeat. Once all of your bites are on the sheet, drizzle just a little maple syrup down over the tops of each one before popping in the oven to bake.

5. Bake bites 15 to 18 minutes or until lightly browned.

6. Remove from oven and serve warm.
