Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tbsp sugar

1 tbsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

1 tsp ground cinnamon

½ cup milk

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

¾ cup cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage (or plant-based sausage)

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

¼ cup finely chopped green onions

1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)

Optional: maple syrup or honey for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. In another bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and egg. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

      Add Fillings: Gently fold in the sausage, cheddar cheese, and green onions until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

        Shape the Rolls: On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and knead it gently for about 1 minute until it comes together. Roll it out into a rectangle about ½ inch thick (approximately 12 x 8 inches). Cut the rectangle into 6 equal strips lengthwise, then cut each strip into 3 equal pieces.

          Roll Up the Dough: Take each piece of dough and roll it up from one end to the other, creating a small roll. Place each roll seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

            Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the tops of the rolls with olive oil for a golden appearance while baking.

              Bake the Rolls: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

                Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Drizzle with maple syrup or honey if desired, and enjoy your delightful Breakfast Rolls warm!
