Instructions
Creating Air Fryer Sausage and Cream Cheese Crescents is a breeze if you carefully follow these steps:
1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Break it up into small pieces as it cooks.
3. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and parsley. Mix until well combined and creamy.
4. Prepare Crescent Rolls: Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface. Separate the triangles along the perforated lines.
5. Fill the Dough: Place a generous spoonful of the sausage and cream cheese mixture on the larger end of each crescent triangle.
6. Roll the Crescents: Starting at the large end, roll the dough towards the pointed tip, encasing the filling completely.
7. Arrange in Air Fryer: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Arrange the rolled crescents in a single layer, allowing space between them for air circulation.
8. Air Fry: Cook in the air fryer for about 10 to 12 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
9. Cool Slightly: After cooking, let the crescents cool for a few minutes before serving.
10. Serve Warm: Enjoy your delicious Air Fryer Sausage and Cream Cheese Crescents warm!
