Equipment

  • Baking Dish
  • Parchment Paper
  • Cutting Board and Knife
  • Measuring Spoons and Cups
  • Pastry Brush
  • Oven and Oven Mitts
  • Serving Platter

Ingredients

  • 2 tubes crescent roll dough refrigerated
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1 cup tomatoes diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil chopped
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1/4 cup black olives sliced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Marinara sauce for dipping optional

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven according to the crescent roll package instructions.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine mozzarella cheese, diced tomatoes, chopped basil, Parmesan cheese, black olives, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Unroll the crescent roll dough and arrange the triangles on a baking sheet, creating a circle with the wide ends overlapping. Press the seams together to seal.
  • Spoon the filling onto the wide ends of the crescent dough, evenly distributing it around the ring.
  • Fold the pointed ends of the crescents over the filling, tucking them under the wide ends to create a ring. Press to seal any openings.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for the time specified on the crescent roll package or until the crust is golden brown.
  • Once baked, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the Italian Crescent Ring on a platter, and optionally, provide marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

  1. Seal Seams Securely: Ensure crescent roll seams are pressed together for a stable and well-formed ring structure before baking.
  2. Customize Filling Ingredients: Tailor the filling to personal preferences, experimenting with a variety of cheeses, meats, and vegetables for unique flavors.
  3. Brief Cooling Time: Allow the Italian Crescent Ring to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving for optimal texture and presentation.
