Place each crescent dough triangle over a muffin cavity and lightly push down the center to make a "pocket".
Add pieces of bacon, a tablespoon of eggs, and a sprinkle (or cube) of cheese to each pocket.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool before enjoying.
Notes
When precooking the scrambled eggs, only cook them until they're no longer runny. This will avoid overcooking them during baking. Cubed cheese melts better than shredded cheese. Nutrition facts may vary and are for informational purposes only.
