Asparagus Stuffed Crescent Rolls Recipe
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Bake Time: 10-13 minutes
Yield: 8 delicious rolls
What You’ll Need
- 1 tube of crescent roll dough (the kind that pops!)
- 2 ounces cream cheese (creamy and dreamy!)
- 8 fresh asparagus spears (thin to medium thickness are best)
- A sprinkle of zesty lemon pepper (or your favorite seasoning)
Let’s Get Cooking
- Warm Up the Oven: First things first, preheat your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C). This ensures your crescent rolls bake to golden perfection.
- Set the Crescents Free: Pop open that tube of crescent roll dough and gently unroll each triangle. It’s like unwrapping little triangles of deliciousness!
- Cream Cheese Layer: Now, take your softened cream cheese and add a dollop onto the wide end of each crescent roll triangle. Think of it as creating a creamy base for our asparagus treasure.
- A Sprinkle of Zing: Give that cream cheese a little flavor boost with a light sprinkle of lemon pepper. Just a pinch is all you need!
- Asparagus Placement: Trim the tough ends off your asparagus spears. Then, lay one spear right across the cream cheese, along the wide edge of the dough.
- Roll with Delight: Here comes the fun part! Starting at the wide end, gently roll up each crescent roll, tucking the asparagus inside as you go. Let the tips of the asparagus peek out a bit!
- Baking Time: Place your assembled crescent rolls onto an ungreased baking sheet.
- Golden Transformation: Pop them into the preheated oven and bake for 10-13 minutes, or until they’re beautifully golden brown and flaky. You’ll know they’re ready when they look irresistible.
- Serve and Savor: Let them cool slightly before serving. These warm, creamy, asparagus-filled delights are best enjoyed fresh!
There you have it!
A super simple, super scrumptious appetizer that’s sure to impress.
Happy baking!
