Here’s a perfect recipe for crispy crescent rolls stuffed with beef, bacon, melted cheese, and tangy pizza sauce — basically a pizza-meets-stuffed-roll situation.
🥐 Crispy Crescent Rolls Stuffed with Beef, Bacon, Cheese & Pizza Sauce
(Makes 8–10 rolls)
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
- 8 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional but extra good)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce (plus extra for dipping)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Optional: pepperoni slices, red pepper flakes, or parmesan
Instructions
1️⃣ Cook the beef
- Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat
- Season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper
- Drain excess grease
2️⃣ Mix the filling
In a bowl, combine:
- cooked beef
- chopped bacon
- mozzarella + cheddar
- pizza sauce
(If you want it saucier, add more sauce — just not too wet or the rolls will get soggy.)
3️⃣ Prep the crescent rolls
- Unroll the crescent dough
- Separate into triangles
4️⃣ Stuff and roll
- Spoon 1–2 tbsp filling onto each triangle (near the wide end)
- Fold the sides in slightly and roll tightly toward the point
5️⃣ Bake
- Place rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes
- Bake until golden brown and crispy
6️⃣ Serve
- Serve hot with extra pizza sauce for dipping
- Optional: sprinkle with parmesan or Italian seasoning
🔥 Pro Tips for Maximum Crispy-ness
- Don’t overfill (or they’ll burst)
- Roll tight so they stay sealed
- Brush with melted butter before baking for extra golden crisp
- If you want them extra crispy, bake 2–3 minutes longer or broil 1 minute at the end (watch closely!)
