Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 can of cinnamon roll dough
  2. 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled
  3. 1 cup blueberries
  4. 1/2 cup cream cheese frosting (from the dough)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it into small crumbles. Cook until fully browned and no pink remains, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease on paper towels and let cool slightly.
  3. Open the can of cinnamon roll dough and carefully unroll the entire sheet on a clean, lightly floured surface.
  4. Spread the cooked sausage crumbles evenly across the surface of the unrolled dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Gently sprinkle fresh blueberries over the sausage, distributing them evenly across the dough.
  6. Carefully roll the dough back into a log, ensuring the sausage and blueberries are securely enclosed.
  7. Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 12 equal-sized rolls and place them cut-side up in the prepared baking pan.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the dough is fully cooked.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes, then drizzle with the included cream cheese frosting.
  10. Serve warm and enjoy the unique combination of sweet blueberries, savory sausage, and classic cinnamon roll flavor.

Tips

  1. • Use fresh, high-quality blueberries for the best flavor burst • Ensure sausage is completely cooled before adding to prevent dough sogginess • Cut rolls with a sharp, clean knife for precise, even slices • Don't overbake—golden brown is your sweet spot • Let rolls rest for 5 minutes after baking to allow flavors to meld • For extra indulgence, warm the cream cheese frosting slightly before drizzling • Can be prepared ahead and refrigerated overnight for quick morning baking • Experiment with different sausage types like maple or spicy for varied flavor profiles
