Ingredients:
- 1 pkg. Maple Flavor Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage
- 1 can (8.5 oz.) refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1-1/2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 4 oz. (1 cup) shredded mild Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 F. In large skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until thoroughly cooked and no longer pink. Separate crescent rolls into eight triangles. Place in ungreased 12-inch rimmed pizza pan with points toward the center. Press together, seal perforations and form a circle 1 inch larger in diameter than bottom of pan. Turn edges under to make a slight rim. In small bowl, combine beaten egg and cream cheese; whisk until smooth. Pour evenly over pizza. Toss apples with sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle cooked sausage evenly over cream cheese mixture. Top with apples; sprinkle with Cheddar cheese. Sprinkle with pecans if desired. Bake for 15-20 minutes or crust is golden brown.
