Scale
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 small green bell pepper, diced
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the diced ham, green bell pepper, and onion until slightly softened.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and scramble gently until just set. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Unroll the crescent dough into a rectangle and press the seams together to seal.
- Spread the cooled egg mixture evenly over the dough and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into even rounds.
- Place the pinwheels on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Do not overcook the eggs before baking to keep them tender.
- Let the filling cool slightly before spreading to prevent the dough from becoming too soft.
- Roll the dough tightly for neat spirals.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
