Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 package Crescent Dough Chilled before unrolling
For the Filling
  • 2 cups Cooked Turkey Can substitute with chicken or ham
  • 1 cup Cranberry Sauce Homemade or canned
  • 1 cup Cheese (shredded mozzarella or cheddar) Omit for dairy-free version
For the Topping
  • 2 tablespoons Melted Butter Can be replaced with olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds Optional for garnish

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Small Bowl
  • Pastry brush

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to the temperature stated on the crescent dough package, typically around 375°F (190°C). Lay out a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Once the oven is ready, take your chilled crescent dough and carefully unroll it. Arrange the crescent triangles in a circular shape on the baking sheet, overlapping the edges slightly to form a ring.
  3. Layer the bottom section of the crescent ring with your cooked turkey, followed by cranberry sauce. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the filling.
  4. Fold the outer points of the crescent dough over the filling toward the center of the ring and gently press the dough ends together to seal.
  5. In a small bowl, melt some butter and use a pastry brush to coat the top of the assembled ring. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added crunch.
  6. Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
  7. Once baked, let the Turkey Cranberry Crescent Ring cool slightly for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
