Swiss Beef Crescent Ring Recipes

BREAKFAST CRESCENT RING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the tater tots on a baking sheet and bake until just golden brown and crispy, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the heavy cream, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off the bacon drippings and reserve 2 tablespoons. Add 1 tablespoon of the drippings and the sausage to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Cook, breaking up any large chunks with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and brown in some spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Return the skillet over medium heat and add the remaining tablespoon of bacon drippings. Once hot and shimmering, add the egg mixture and cook, stirring frequently, with a rubber spatula, until soft and fluffy and almost completely cooked through but still a bit runny, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a clean large bowl.
• Coat the back of a baking sheet with cooking spray. Unroll both cans of crescent dough and separate unto 16 triangles. Put a 5-inch ramekin in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the triangles in a ring around the ramekin so the short sides of the dough are touching the ramekin, overlapping slightly, and the pointed ends are facing outward (it should look like a giant sun).
• Spoon the egg mixture over the short ends of the triangles closest to the ramekin. Sprinkle the sausage on top of the eggs then sprinkle the bacon over the sausage. Cover the bacon with the American and Cheddar cheese. Top with the potato tots and remove the ramekin. Take hold of the pointed end of one of the triangles and fold it up and over the filling, tucking the tip under the bottom edge of dough to secure (the dough will not cover the filling completely but should cover the tater tots). Repeat with the remaining triangles (there will be some gaps where you can see the filling).
• Bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 25 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Use a spatula to slide the ring off the baking sheet onto a platter. Serve with maple syrup, ketchup, hot sauce or white gravy if desired.

HAM & SWISS CRESCENT RING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Combine all ingredients (except rolls) in a bowl. I use an electric mixer to get it well blended.
• Open the crescent tubes and separate each roll into 4 rectangles. On a parchment lined or nonstick baking sheet lay the rectangles out to form a circle. There are images here: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/121034308711924287/.
• Place filling in a ring shape on top of the dough circle. Fold the dough over to cover the filling.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until crescent dough looks done.

• Add the cheese, colored peppers, mushrooms and the diced beef, mix lightly.
• Separate the dough into 8 triangles and place on a greased cookie sheet.
• Arrange the triangles in a circle with the bases over lapping.
• The center opening should be about 3 inches in diameter.
• Points should be towards the outside.
• Spoon the filling in a ring over bases of triangle.
• Fold the points of the triangle over the filling and tuck under the base at the center of the circle.
• When finished it should look like a round ring.
