A delightful and visually appealing appetizer featuring a cheesy spinach and artichoke filling wrapped in golden crescent dough.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a golden crust.
In a mixing bowl, combine the artichoke hearts, spinach, mozzarella, feta, Parmesan, red bell pepper, mayonnaise, garlic, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Ensure the spinach is well-drained to avoid a soggy filling.
Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a baking sheet. Arrange the triangles in a circular pattern, overlapping slightly, with the wide ends towards the center.
Chill the dough if it becomes too soft to handle.
Spoon the filling evenly around the wide ends of the dough triangles.
Use an ice cream scoop for even distribution.
Fold the pointed ends of the dough triangles over the filling, tucking them under the wide ends to form a ring.
Ensure the filling is enclosed to prevent leakage.
Brush the dough with the beaten egg white and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
The egg wash gives a shiny, golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Check halfway through to ensure even browning.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious crescent ring!
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
