How to Make Ham & Cheese Crescent Rolls

1) First, make your crescent roll dough from fresh milled flour and allow the dough to chill in the fridge for 1 hour.

2) Cut the dough into four equal parts. Roll each part into a circle and cut each circle into 8 pieces using a pizza cutter.

3) On each piece of dough, lay one piece of deli ham and a piece of cheese at the top.

4) Starting at the widest part, roll the dough inwards towards the point to make your roll.

5) Bake the rolls at 375 F for 15-20 minutes until the rolls are golden brown.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute the ham for other deli meat? Yes! This recipe is completely customizable! Pick your favorite meat and cheese, roll it up in the dough, and bake!

Can I freeze these rolls? Yes! You can freeze them while they are dough and bake later or bake and then freeze them. Either way will work.

Do I have to use your crescent roll recipe? No, you can use another recipe or the canned dough, but I recommend my recipe because the ingredients are simple and full of vitamins and minerals that are not present in other doughs.

Enjoy these ham and cheese crescent rolls as a snack, lunch on-the-go, or an appetizer! They are a great little snack to have on hand for your family!
