Ingredients

• 8 oz crescent roll dough (refrigerated)
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 small yellow onion
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp dried parsley
• 0.25 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp ground black pepper
• 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

Peel and finely dice the onion.

Step 3

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and let the onion cool slightly.

Step 4

Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean, flat surface and separate it into individual triangles.

Step 5

Spread a small spoonful of the sautéed onion onto each triangle, evenly distributing the onion mixture across the dough pieces.

Step 6

Sprinkle garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and pepper lightly over the onion layer.

Step 7

Optionally, sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top for extra flavor.

Step 8

Roll up each triangle starting from the wide end, gently shaping into thin, stick-like rolls. Pinch the seams to seal the dough.

Step 9

Place the crescent sticks onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow the sticks to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature as a snack or appetizer!
