Recipe Summary Meatball-Stuffed Crescent Rolls
These ground turkey meatballs stuffed in crescent rolls are perfect appetizers for any party! They need a little extra time to make, but they are delicious!Ingredients | Filipino Finger Foods Appetizer
1 teaspoon butter, or as needed
1 pound ground turkey
1 medium onion, chopped
1 envelope dry onion soup mix (such as Lipton®)
1 tablespoon dried parsley
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent roll dough (such as Pillsbury®
1 egg
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Butter 2 cookie sheets.
Mix ground turkey with onion, onion soup mix, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper. Form mixture into about 48 small meatballs.
Open 1 package of crescent rolls, keeping the other refrigerated. Separate dough along dotted lines. Cut each triangle into thirds. Place a meatball in the middle of each, stretch and wrap the dough around it, and pinch to seal. Place stuffed rolls seam-side down onto one of the prepared cookie sheets.
Repeat with the second roll of crescent dough and remaining meatballs. Whisk egg in a bowl. Brush egg wash over each roll.
Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball reads at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm.
Keep crescent rolls in fridge until ready to use - they are much easier to work with when cold.
You can freeze the baked rolls and reheat until warmed through, about 20 minutes at 325 degrees F.
