Ingredients:

• 1 cup warm water
• 1 tbsp yeast
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tbsp oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 2½ to 3 cups flour

Toppings:

• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 2 cups shredded Cheddar Jack cheese
• 12-15 slices thin bacon, cooked and chopped
• 6 breakfast sausages, cooked and diced
• 4 large eggs, scrambled

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:
   In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it rest for 3-4 minutes until the yeast becomes foamy.
   Add oil, salt, and 2½ cups of flour. Gradually add more flour if needed, until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. (A mixer can be helpful here!) Knead the dough for 3-4 minutes, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let it rest in a warm place for 15 minutes. For a warmer spot in cooler weather, briefly turn on your oven for a few minutes, then turn it off and place the dough inside to rise.
2. Prepare the Fillings:
   Cook and scramble the eggs. Fry the bacon until crispy and chop it into small pieces. Cook the sausages and dice them as well.
   Preheat your oven to 400°F.
3. Assemble the Rolls:
   Lightly spray your countertop with non-stick spray. Roll out the dough into a large rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Brush the surface of the dough with melted butter, then evenly spread the scrambled eggs on top.
   Sprinkle 1½ cups of shredded cheese over the eggs, then distribute the bacon and sausage evenly. Reserve ½ cup of cheese for later.
4. Roll and Slice:
   Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seams to seal the ends. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1½-inch sections, creating about 15 rolls.
5. Bake:
   Arrange the rolls on a greased baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, until the rolls begin to turn golden brown.
   Remove from the oven, sprinkle with the remaining ½ cup of cheese, and bake for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Optionally, brush the rolls with more melted butter before serving.

Notes:
Enjoy these breakfast rolls fresh out of the oven for the best taste! If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
