Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can crescent roll dough
- Thin slices of ham (enough for each roll)
- Slices of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)
- Optional Butter Glaze:
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Optional Egg Wash:
- 1 egg, beaten
Instructions
Prepare the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Shape the Dough:
- Open the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles along the perforations.
Add Fillings:
- Lay a slice of ham and cheese onto the wide end of each triangle. Be careful not to overfill to avoid tearing the dough.
Roll Them Up:
- Starting at the wide end, roll the dough tightly toward the tip, wrapping the ham and cheese inside.
Optional Topping:
- Mix melted butter with honey, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder for extra flavor, then brush over the rolls.
- Alternatively, brush with the beaten egg wash for a golden crust.
Bake:
- Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced slightly apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Serve Warm:
- Let the rolls cool for about a minute before serving. Enjoy them warm while the cheese is still melty!
Notes
- Dipping Sauces: Serve with honey mustard, ranch, or marinara sauce.
- Breakfast Spread: Pair with scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, or yogurt for a complete breakfast.
- Appetizer Platter: Add to a charcuterie board with veggies, dips, and crackers.
