Ingredients

  • 4 fully cooked bratwursts
  • 1 can crescent roll dough 8-count
  • 1 ½ cup caramelized onion
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon everything Bagel seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into individual triangles.
  3. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over each triangle, then add a spoonful of caramelized onions.
  4. Place half of a bratwurst at the wide end of each triangle, then roll it up tightly toward the pointed end.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Brush the egg wash over each wrapped bratwurst.
  6. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning evenly over the tops.
  7. Arrange the wrapped brats on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.
  8. Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Keep the crescent roll dough cold until you're ready to use it. warm dough is harder to work with.
  • If the triangles tear while unrolling, pinch them back together.
  • Let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving - the cheese inside gets super hot.
  • If you don't have everything bagel seasoning, substitute with a mixture of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and coarse salt, or simply use sesame seeds alone.
  • Use any flavor of bratwurst.
