Crescent Breakfast Squares

We love ourselves a good crescent dough hack, and this one is one of our faves. Look for dough you can buy as a full sheet, as opposed to the kind with perforated edges. It's not totally necessary, but it'll make things easier to assemble. 

INGREDIENTS

Cooking spray

12 

large eggs

1/4 c. 

milk

3 tbsp. 

butter, divided

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 

cans crescent dough

1/2 lb. 

deli ham, sliced

1/4 c. 

finely chopped chives

12 

slices cheddar

1 tsp. 

poppy seeds

1 tsp. 

sesame seeds

1 tsp. 

minced onion

1 tsp. 

dried garlic

Flaky sea salt

DIRECTIONS

1. 1. Preheat oven to 375° and grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
2. 2. In a large nonstick pan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. When butter is foamy, reduce heat to low and add egg mixture. Cook, stirring often with a spatula, until eggs are just set. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
3. 3. Unroll one can of crescents onto greased baking sheet and pinch seams together so it's a solid layer of pastry without gaps. Add a layer of ham then top with scrambled eggs, chives, and cheese. Unroll second crescent dough and place on top of cheese. Pinch together crescent sheets to seal.
