Deliciously flaky crescent rolls filled with savory ground beef and oozing cheese.

  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 cup diced onion (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup or pizza sauce
  • 1 can (8-count) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese blend)
  • 1 egg, beaten (optional for golden finish)
  • Sesame seeds (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add onions if using, cooking until softened. Drain excess grease. Stir in ketchup or pizza sauce for flavor.
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles.
  3. Place 1–2 tablespoons beef mixture at the wide end of each triangle. Sprinkle with cheese, then roll up tightly toward the narrow end.
  4. Place rolls seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg for shine and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Bake for 11–13 minutes, until golden brown.
  5. Enjoy warm, with extra ketchup or ranch for dipping.

Notes

Drain beef well to avoid soggy rolls. You can swap cheddar for pepper jack if you like heat. Double the batch for reheating later.
