They other night my friend told me that they made crescent rolls in the air fryer. “You can do that?”, I asked. I use my air fryer pretty much every day but I’m still learning to think outside the box for ways I can use it. Apparently TikTok knows all the ways so I may need to start opening that app more often. Anyway, she says they made them in the air fryer and they were amazing. And then mentions you can do fun things with them. I had to find out for myself because I am a bread lover! I decided to do Italian style crescents with mozzarella, Italian seasoning, garlic and butter. Basic but essential when having pasta, right? I paired these with a homemade cajun chicken broccoli fettucine alfredo. The combination was amazing!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons butter melted
1 tsp garlic powder
DIRECTIONS
Spray air fryer basket with non-stick spray. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic, and Italian seasoning. Open the crescent rolls and separate the triangles. Add a pinch of shredded mozzarella cheese to the widest part of the crescents. Roll the crescents and pinch the ends together so that no cheese spills out. Brush each crescent with the butter garlic mixture.
Add crescent rolls to air fryer at 375 and cook for 7 to 8 minutes, until golden brown. Air fryers vary so be sure to check on them halfway through. Once done, remove the crescents from the air fryer and brush with additional melted butter.
I have so many recipes I want to try for these crescents now like adding pepperoni, stuffing with buffalo chicken dip, ham and swiss, jalapeno popper, Nutella and a chocolate syrup drizzle…mind blown.
