Follow The Directions
01
Step
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
Step
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook and stir the pork sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease. (8 minutes)
03
Step
Transfer the cooked sausage to a large mixing bowl. Add the diced onion, softened cream cheese, and minced jalapenos. Mix well to combine all ingredients evenly. (3 minutes)
04
Step
Gently unroll the crescent roll dough sheets and separate them into individual triangles. (2 minutes)
05
Step
Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the sausage mixture onto the wide end of each crescent dough triangle. Fold the corners of the dough over the filling, then roll up the triangle towards the tip, forming a crescent shape. Pinch the edges to seal. (15 minutes)
06
Step
Place the prepared sausage croissants onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing them evenly. (2 minutes)
07
Step
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown and the filling is heated through. (15 minutes)
08
Step
Let the croissants cool slightly on the baking sheets before serving. (5 minutes)
For a milder flavor, remove the membranes from the jalapenos before chopping.
For an extra crispy crust, brush the croissants with a beaten egg before baking.
Feel free to experiment with different types of sausage or add other ingredients like shredded cheese or bell peppers to the filling.
These croissants are best served warm, but they can also be enjoyed at room temperature.
To make ahead, assemble the croissants and refrigerate them until ready to bake. Add a few minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
