Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silpat liner.
  2. Cook the sausages according to the package directions. Set aside.
  3. Open the crescent rolls and separate them into 8 triangles.
  4. Brush the maple syrup over the top of each of the triangles. Place one of the sausages at the wide end of the crescent roll, then roll the dough around the sausage. Place on the baking sheet, seam side down.
  5. Place the egg in a small bowl with a splash of water and whisk.
  6. Brush the tops of the crescent rolls with the egg wash. (You don’t need to use it all - just enough to cover the tops of the crescent rolls.) Sprinkle with the poppy seeds.
  7. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Serve with more maple syrup, for dipping, if desired.

Notes

  • Adapted from Every Day with Rachael Ray March 2014
  • I found that if I used real maple syrup, I needed closer to 2 tablespoons to brush on the crescent rolls, but with pancake syrup, I only needed about 1 tablespoon.
