Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 rolls refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 piece egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, thawed spinach, diced red bell pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Open the crescent roll dough and separate into individual triangles.
Arrange the triangles in a circle on the prepared baking sheet, overlapping the wide ends slightly and leaving the pointed ends outward. This should form a ring shape in the center.
Spoon the cream cheese mixture evenly around the wide ends of the crescent triangles.
Gently fold the pointed ends of the triangles over the filling and tuck them underneath the wide ends to seal the crescent ring.
Brush the entire crescent ring with the beaten egg to give it a golden finish when baked.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Let the crescent ring cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
