1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
1/2 cup basil pesto
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 unit egg (beaten for egg wash)
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s at the right temperature for baking.
- Roll out the crescent roll dough and separate along pre-cut lines to make triangles.
- Arrange the triangles on a baking sheet in a circle with points outward, slightly overlapping the edges.
- Spread the basil pesto over the dough rings, ensuring even coverage for every bite.
- Sprinkle both mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly over the pesto-covered dough.
- Carefully fold the pointed ends of the crescent rolls over the cheese and pesto mixture to form a wreath.
- Brush the dough with beaten egg to give a golden-brown sheen once baked.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
- Remove from oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
