Description
A festive and delicious Turkey Cranberry Crescent Ring perfect for holiday gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans (8 oz / 230 g each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 cups (about 300 g) cooked turkey, shredded or chopped
- ½ cup (120 ml) cranberry sauce (homemade or canned)
- 1 cup (120 g) shredded cheddar or Swiss cheese
- ¼ cup (60 ml) mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Optional Garnish: Fresh parsley or thyme
- Extra cranberry sauce for serving
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine turkey, mayonnaise, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well coated and creamy. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a ring shape, overlapping the wide ends in the center (the points should face outward, creating a sunburst pattern). Press the overlapping dough to seal slightly and form a circular base.
- Spoon the turkey mixture along the dough near the center ring. Sprinkle evenly with shredded cheese. Top with small dollops of cranberry sauce over the filling.
- Gently lift the dough tips and fold them over the filling toward the center, tucking the ends underneath. Continue around the ring — it’s okay if some filling peeks through!
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the crescent ring is golden brown and puffed.
- Let cool slightly, then garnish with fresh parsley or thyme. Serve warm with extra cranberry sauce or gravy on the side.
