Pure comfort food in breakfast form! With hearty chicken sausage, fluffy crescent rolls and melty cheddar cheese there is no wonder this crescent roll breakfast pizza is a heart throb. And the best part is, it’s ready to eat in just 30 minutes!

This easy breakfast pizza recipe is packed with protein and made with only 5 ingredients. It’s been lightened up a little bit from traditional breakfast casseroles in that we’re using egg whites and chicken sausage.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with eggs (I LOVE my eggs). But using egg whites helps reduce fat and calories significantly. And since we’re using all these other yummy ingredients that steal the show, I promise you won’t even miss them.

But going off of that, this is an easy one to modify. Whether you want to modify the protein or fat, or just if you want to use different ingredients. I’ll include some different ways to modify this easy breakfast recipe below!

Also, this crescent roll breakfast pizza is a great option for meal prep! Make a big batch at the beginning of the week, store in the fridge, and reheat when ready to eat. And let me just tell you now, you absolutely MUST try this pizza reheated in the air fryer!

• Crescent rolls – I used Pillsbury crescent roll dough.
• Egg whites – I used egg whites from the carton. You can also use fresh egg whites or whole eggs. See the FAQ section below for my recommendations on swapping for whole eggs.
• Cheese – I used freshly shredded cheddar cheese. Mozzarella cheese and pepper jack would also work well! I would highly recommend freshly shredded cheese here (it will be the most cheesiest that way!), but technically you can use any cheese here!
• Chicken sausage – I used Jones Dairy Farm, which is similar to Applegate’s, just a little cheaper. You could also use a turkey, pork breakfast sausage or any type of cooked sausage. Or omit completely to make this pizza vegetarian.
• Ranch seasoning – Ranch seasoning mix brings delicious flavor that complements all the other ingredients so well! But you can also use onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in its place.

• Increase the protein: Add more egg whites or serve alongside egg whites or eggs. Or you can add more chicken sausage (or serve alongside more chicken sausage).
• Decrease the fat: Use reduced-fat cheddar cheese, or use less cheese. Using reduced-fat crescent roll sheets will also lighten this up a smidge.
• Change up the protein: Instead of chicken sausage, you can use turkey sausage, pork sausage, diced ham or crispy bacon!
• Add vegetables: By all means, pile the veggies on top! A great way to get some extra fiber in. Bell peppers, onions, cooked broccoli, really anything goes!
• Change up the cheese: Cheddar goes amazing with chicken sausage but feel free to get creative here! Mozzarella, white cheddar cheese, Colby jack would all be AMAZING!

Store leftover crescent roll breakfast pizza in an airtight container or with plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 5-6 days.

How To Reheat

1. In the air fryer. I highly recommend this method if you have an air fryer! It gets the pizza crust little crispy on the outside but stays doughy in the middle, with all the same savory and cheesy flavors as before. It is perfection! Just reheat in the air fryer at 350F for 4-6 minutes, or until desired crispness.
2. In the oven. If you don’t have an air fryer, the oven is your next best bet! You can do it on broil until it starts to get brown (preferred) or just reheat at 400F until desired temperature is reached. 
3. In the microwave. The microwave doesn’t get the pizza as crisp as the later two, but it still reheats well. Microwave for about 30 seconds or until it’s warmed through.
