How to Make Crescent Crust Sausage Brunch Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 11x7-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown 1 lb pork sausage meat and 1/2 medium onion (chopped) until browned. Drain excess grease.
  3. Transfer sausage mixture to a large bowl and let cool slightly.
  4. Add 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup half-and-half cream, 2 large eggs, 1 tsp seasoned salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste) to the bowl. Mix well to combine.
  5. Unroll one package (8 oz) of crescent roll dough and pinch perforations to seal. Gently press the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  6. Bake the crescent roll crust for 10 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven and evenly spread the sausage mixture over the baked crust.
  8. Sprinkle 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  9. Return to oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
