Breakfast Ring Recipe
Description
The Breakfast Ring Recipe uses crescent roll triangles formed into a circle to hold a filling of eggs cooked in bacon drippings with chopped red bell peppers for a subtle sweetness. Cooked bacon pieces and shredded Mexican cheese are layered with the egg mixture, then wrapped with the dough points and topped with melted butter and additional cheese before baking. The baking creates a golden, flaky crust around a moist, savory center rich with smoky bacon and creamy eggs.
The ring is typically served warm, making it a centerpiece for breakfast or brunch. Its combination of ingredients offers a satisfying meal that can be sliced into portions, making it practical for sharing. The fresh cilantro sprinkled on top adds a bright note to the dish.
Ingredients
- 4 lices Bacon cut in half
- 1/3 cup milk
- 4 egg slightly beaten
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper chopped
- 8 oz crescent rolls refrigerated
- 1 cup Mexican cheese divided, shredded
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- cilantro chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375.

- In a bowl, beat ⅓ milk, egg salt and pepper until well mixed. Add peppers and pour into bacon pan and cook until thickened through out but still moist. Set aside.
- Add parchment paper to a large cookie sheet. Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into triangles. Layer dough around making a 4 inch circle in the middle with the points towards the outside of the cookie sheet (see pic below). Press the overlapping dough together.
- Add bacon around the center of the circle at the tops of the triangles and top with ⅓ cup shredded cheese. Spoon eggs on top of cheese and add another ⅓ cup of cheese on top of the eggs.
- Add pointed ends of dough and wrap around eggs, tucking under the dough to form a ring (filling will be visible).
- Brush top of dough with melted butter and the remaining cheese.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Top with cilantro and serve warm. ENJOY!
