Spinach Feta Stuffed Crescents are a delicious, flaky treat perfect for parties, Snacks, or a quick appetizer. The buttery crescent rolls are stuffed with a creamy mixture of spinach, tangy feta cheese, and a touch of garlic for a flavor-packed bite. These are simple to prepare but fancy enough to impress guests at any gathering!

Ingredients

For the Stuffed Crescents:

• 1 can (8 oz / 226g) refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1 cup (150g) fresh spinach, chopped
• ½ cup (75g) crumbled feta cheese
• 2 oz (55g) cream cheese, softened
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 egg yolk (optional, for brushing)
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

1. Prepare the Filling:
   In a medium bowl, combine the chopped spinach, feta cheese, cream cheese, garlic, and black pepper. Mix until evenly blended.
2. Shape the Crescents:
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Place a spoonful of the spinach and feta mixture at the wider end of each triangle.
3. Roll and Seal:
   Carefully roll the dough, starting from the wider end toward the tip, to form a crescent shape. Pinch the edges to seal the filling inside.
4. Brush and Garnish:
   If using the egg yolk, whisk it lightly and brush it over the tops of the crescents. Sprinkle with sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.
5. Bake:
   Arrange the stuffed crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
6. Serve:
   Let cool slightly before serving. These are delicious warm or at room temperature!

Notes

• Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster oven for a crispier texture.
• Substitutions: Use ricotta cheese instead of cream cheese for a lighter filling, or add sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor.
• Make-Ahead: Prepare the filling in advance and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before assembling.
• Customizations: Add chopped mushrooms, cooked bacon, or herbs like dill or parsley to the filling for variation.
