How to Make Breakfast Sausage Bread Roll

  1. Thaw 1 pound of frozen bread dough at room temperature until doubled in size (approximately 1-2 hours).
  2. In a large skillet, brown 1 pound breakfast sausage, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder over medium heat. Break sausage into crumbles as it cooks.
  3. Drain excess grease from the sausage mixture.
  4. Separate 2 large eggs, reserving 1 egg white for glazing.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 egg and 2 egg yolks with 1 1/2 cups shredded Italian cheese blend (such as mozzarella, provolone, and parmesan).
  6. Add the cooked sausage mixture to the egg and cheese mixture, stirring gently to combine.
  7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Gently flatten the thawed dough into a 12x18 inch rectangle.
  8. Spread the sausage and cheese mixture evenly over the dough.
  9. Tightly roll the dough into a log (jelly-roll style) with the filling inside.
  10. Pinch the seam to seal completely.
  11. Place the roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  12. Brush the top of the roll with the reserved egg white.
  13. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  14. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick rounds.
