How to Make Sausage Brunch Braid
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, cook sausage, onion, celery, green pepper, and garlic over medium heat until the sausage is no longer pink and the vegetables are tender (about 8-10 minutes). Drain any excess grease.
- Stir in softened cream cheese, green onions, and parsley until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is well combined.
- Set the sausage mixture aside to cool slightly.
- Unroll the crescent dough onto a lightly greased baking sheet. Gently press the perforations together to form a large rectangle.
- Spread the sausage mixture evenly over the center of the dough, leaving a 3-inch border on the sides and a 1-inch border on the ends.
- Cut 3/4-inch wide strips on each long side of the dough rectangle.
- Starting from one end, weave the strips together, alternating sides to create a braid. Tuck the ends underneath.
- Brush the top of the braid with the beaten egg.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the filling is heated through.
