Cheesy Ham Breakfast Braid

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Ham Breakfast Braid.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C), setting the stage for a delicious meal.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine the milk and softened cream cheese, beating them together until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture.

3. Step 3

   Next, crack in the eggs and season the mixture with a pinch of salt and pepper, stirring until everything is beautifully blended.

4. Step 4

   Now, heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat.

5. Step 5

   Pour in your egg mixture and gently stir as it cooks, keeping an eye on it until the eggs are nearly set but still a touch runny—this will keep them fluffy and delightful.

6. Step 6

   While the eggs are cooking, take a lightly greased cookie sheet and lay out one package of crescent rolls to form a rectangle.

7. Step 7

   With the second package, line the edges of this rectangle, placing the broad ends on top and letting the pointed ends hang over the sides.

8. Step 8

   This will create a lovely base for your filling.

9. Step 9

   Now, it’s time to layer on the flavor! Place slices of ham down the center of your dough rectangle, creating a savory foundation.

10. Step 10

    Spoon the cooked egg mixture over the ham, allowing it to nestle in nicely, and then sprinkle a generous amount of shredded Cheddar cheese on top for that melty goodness.

11. Step 11

    To finish, fold the corners of the crescent rolls over the cheese, crafting a beautiful braid shape.

12. Step 12

    Don’t forget to seal the edges to keep all that delicious filling inside.

13. Step 13

    Pop your creation into the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cheese is perfectly melted and the rolls are a gorgeous golden brown.
