Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flaked cooked salmon, softened cream cheese, green onions, fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles according to the perforations.
Place a small spoonful (approximately 1 tablespoon) of the salmon mixture onto the wide end of each dough triangle.
Gently roll up the dough, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the pointed tip, fully enclosing the salmon filling. Arrange the rolled crescents on the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down.
Brush each crescent with beaten egg to give a golden, glossy finish after baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional dill or lemon wedges if desired.
