  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 8 crescents 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 6 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Place them on a clean, lightly floured surface.
  2. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese over each triangle, followed by crumbled bacon. Make sure the toppings are evenly distributed.
  3. Starting from the wider end, roll each triangle into a crescent shape, tucking in any loose filling as you go. Place the rolled crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Brush the tops of the crescents with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder and parsley if desired. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use freshly cooked bacon for the best texture and flavor.
  • Experiment with cheeses—try mozzarella, pepper jack, or a blend for variety.
  • Add a touch of spice with a pinch of red pepper flakes or smoked paprika.
  • Serve with dipping sauces like ranch, honey mustard, or marinara for extra indulgence.
