Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough
- 8 slices turkey bacon
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that your crescent rolls will bake evenly and turn golden brown.
- Open the can of crescent roll dough carefully, and unroll the dough on a clean, flat surface. You should see a large rectangle of dough divided into 8 triangles.
- Take the Dijon mustard and spread a thin layer over each triangle of dough. This will add a tangy flavor to your rolls.
- Place one slice of Swiss cheese on each triangle of dough. Ensure that the cheese is positioned in the center of the triangle, leaving some space at the edges for rolling.
- Next, take one slice of turkey bacon and place it on top of the Swiss cheese. If needed, you can cut the bacon to fit the triangle better.
- Starting from the wide end of the triangle, carefully roll the dough towards the pointed end. Make sure to roll it tightly to encase the turkey bacon and cheese.
- Once all the crescent rolls are rolled up, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure there is enough space between each roll to allow for expansion during baking.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg to create an egg wash. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the tops of each crescent roll with the beaten egg. This will give them a beautiful golden color once baked.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed up and golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. This will make them easier to handle.
- Serve the turkey bacon Swiss crescent rolls warm as a delicious appetizer or snack. Enjoy!
Tips
- Preheat for Perfection: Always preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) before baking. This step is crucial for achieving that perfectly golden and flaky texture.
- Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to get creative! You can add other ingredients like sautéed onions, bell peppers, or even a sprinkle of your favorite herbs for an extra flavor boost.
- Even Spacing: When placing the rolls on the baking sheet, ensure there's enough space between each one. This allows them to puff up nicely without sticking together.
- Egg Wash Magic: Don’t skip the egg wash! Brushing the tops with a beaten egg not only gives the rolls a beautiful golden color but also adds a slight sheen that makes them look irresistible.
- Serve Warm: These crescent rolls are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven. Serve them warm for the ultimate taste experience, and consider pairing them with a dipping sauce like honey mustard or ranch for added delight.
