Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup lump or flaked cooked crab meat
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Get your oven ready – Set it to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Make the magic filling – In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, green onions, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir until smooth and evenly blended.
- Shape your dough – Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Slice each triangle in half lengthwise so you have smaller, bite-sized pieces.
- Fill and roll – Place a teaspoon of the crab mixture on the wide end of each piece of dough. Roll gently toward the narrow tip, tucking in the filling as you go.
- Bake to golden perfection – Arrange the rolls seam-side down on your prepared sheet. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until puffed and lightly browned.
- Add the finishing touch – If desired, sprinkle fresh parsley over the warm rolls just before serving.
