Ingredients

• 8 slices (about 8 oz.) bacon

• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 (8 oz.) tube refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

• Bake or fry the bacon according to its package directions. Cool. Blot grease away with paper towels. Chop or use your hands to crumble the bacon into very small pieces.
• Add the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper to a large bowl. Whisk until the eggs are well scrambled. Add the butter to a medium skillet and place over medium heat until the butter is melted.

• Divide the cooked eggs between the crescent rolls. Use the back of a spoon to smash the eggs down into an even flat layer. Top the eggs with the bacon. Top the bacon with the shredded cheese.
• Fold the points of the crescent roll over the top of the filling, trying to cover as much of the filling as possible. Pinch the dough together where it touches.

Notes

*Don’t leave them in the muffin tin for much longer than 5 minutes or the bottoms will get soggy.
