Indulge in the irresistible combination of crispy bacon and gooey cheese wrapped in flaky crescent rolls with this simple yet delicious recipe. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a savory snack, these stuffed crescents are sure to be a hit with everyone!
Ingredients:
- 2 cans of crescent rolls (or biscuits)
- Cheese (any type you prefer)
- 12oz or 16oz package of bacon, cooked
- Flour for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Work Surface: Lightly flour your work surface to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Crescent Rolls: Unroll one can of crescent rolls (or half can of biscuits) onto the floured surface. Use your hands or a rolling pin to press the seams together and stretch the dough into a rectangle.
- Layer Ingredients: Add a layer of cheese on top of the crescent roll dough, followed by a layer of cooked bacon.
- Add Second Layer of Dough: Unroll the remaining can of crescent rolls on top of the cheese and bacon layer. Press all the seams together to seal the dough on top and around the edges.
- Slice and Arrange: Use a pizza cutter or knife to slice the layered dough into squares. Arrange the squares on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are touching each other.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the top of the crescent rolls is lightly browned and the cheese is melted.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the stuffed crescents from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for 3-5 minutes to allow them to set slightly. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, savory goodness!
Tips:
- Experiment with different types of cheese to find your favorite flavor combination. Cheddar, mozzarella, pepper jack, or Swiss are all great options.
- For extra flavor, you can sprinkle some dried herbs or spices onto the cheese layer before adding the bacon.
- If you prefer, you can use pre-cooked bacon or turkey bacon instead of cooking it yourself.
- These stuffed crescents are best served fresh and warm, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat them in the oven or microwave before serving.
