Can I make Crescent Roll Breakfast Casserole the night before?

Yes, you can! Simply assemble the casserole, cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, bake it straight from the fridge—just add a few extra minutes to the baking time since it’ll start cold.

How do I prevent the bottom from getting soggy?

Make sure to drain any grease from cooked sausage or bacon before layering. Also, pre-bake the crescent roll crust for 5 minutes if you prefer a crispier base before adding the egg mixture.

Can I freeze this casserole?

Absolutely. You can freeze it either baked or unbaked. For baked casseroles, cool completely before wrapping tightly. Reheat in the oven until warmed through. For unbaked, thaw overnight in the fridge before baking as directed.

What are the best sides to serve with Crescent Roll Breakfast Casserole?

Pair it with fresh fruit salad, hash browns, or a simple green salad. For drinks, orange juice or a hot cup of coffee perfectly complements this hearty breakfast dish.
