These recipes cover everything from appetizers and entrees to desserts and snacks.

The one thing they all have in common is the main ingredient is store-bought crescent roll dough!

Whether it’s a casual brunch, a potluck, or a sophisticated cocktail party, the flaky, buttery goodness of crescent roll dough makes them a huge hit.

Tips for Leftover Crescent Roll Dough

I don’t like to waste anything, so when I find myself with leftover dough, here are some simple ways I put it to quick and easy use:

  1. Cinnamon Sugar Sticks: Roll the dough into strips, brush with melted butter, sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar, and then bake until golden brown.
  2. Cheesy Breadsticks: Roll out the dough and cut it into thin strips. Twist each strip and sprinkle them with grated cheese, garlic powder, and herbs. Place on a baking sheet and bake until the breadsticks are crispy, and the cheese is melted.
  3. Fruit Cups: Press pieces of the buttery crescent rolls into a mini muffin tin, pressing against the sides. Fill with your choice of fruit preserves or fresh fruit. Bake until the pastry is golden, and the filling is warm and bubbly.
  4. Crescent Roll Knots: Cut the dough into small pieces and tie them into knots. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic salt or herbs. Bake on a parchment paper lined sheet pan until the knots are golden and serve them as savory bread bites.

If all else fails, wrap in plastic wrap and stick it back in the fridge for up to 2-3 days until you can decide how to use it.

Crescent Roll Dough FAQs

Can I freeze cans of crescent rolls?

It’s not recommended. This is because the cans have been known to explode as they freeze. 

How do I give baked dough a shiny crust?

The easy way to give your baked crescent roll recipes a shiny crust is to brush them with an egg wash right before you add them to the oven.

How do I ensure my crescent rolls bake evenly?

Always preheat your oven according to the recipe instructions before baking with crescent roll dough. You should also rotate the baking sheet halfway through the baking time to ensure they bake evenly all the way around.
