Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- On a floured surface, roll the crescent rolls into a 7x5-inch rectangle.
- Arrange sliced ham and Swiss cheese slices on the dough rectangle.
- Cut the ham and cheese to fit, leaving 1/2-inch of dough all around.
- Spread mustard over the filling, then brush the rim of the dough with the beaten egg.
- Fold the dough over the filling so the 5-inch sides meet; seal the edges with a fork.
- Place the roll-ups on a cookie sheet and brush with the remaining beaten egg.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until browned.
Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, try using turkey or chicken instead of ham, or swap Swiss cheese for cheddar or provolone. Ensure your crescent roll dough is well-floured to prevent sticking. For added flavor, mix the mustard with a bit of honey or garlic powder. If you're short on time, pre-sliced deli meats will save prep time.
Serving Suggestions
These roll-ups make a fantastic appetizer or snack for gatherings. Serve them alongside a fresh salad or pair with Green Beans With Bacon And Potatoes for a complete meal. They also work well as a quick breakfast option with a side of fruit or yogurt, making them versatile for any occasion.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover roll-ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until warmed through, ensuring they retain their crispiness. Avoid the microwave, as it can make the dough soggy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze the roll-ups before baking?
Yes, you can freeze the assembled roll-ups before baking. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. When ready to bake, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight and then bake as directed.
What can I use instead of crescent rolls?
If you don't have crescent rolls, you can use puff pastry or phyllo dough as alternatives. Just ensure to adjust the baking time slightly, as these may cook faster due to their flakiness.
Can I add vegetables to the filling?
Absolutely! You can add thinly sliced bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms to the filling for extra flavor and nutrition. Just make sure to sauté any fresh vegetables first to remove excess moisture before adding them to the roll-ups.
