Tips & Substitutions
For a crispier crust, consider pre-baking the crescent roll base for an additional 2-3 minutes. If you want to add more flavor, try mixing in herbs like chives or parsley with the egg mixture. You can also substitute the ham with cooked bacon or sausage for a different twist. For a lighter option, use egg whites instead of whole eggs.
