Ingredients
  

Dough and Filling
  • 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 oz)
  • 1 cup cooked crab meat (lump or flaked) Can substitute with imitation crab or canned tuna.
  • 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 tablespoons green onion (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish) For garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the crab meat, softened cream cheese, chopped green onion, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  3. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. For a smaller bite, cut each triangle in half lengthwise.
  4. Place about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture onto the widest part of each triangle and roll it up towards the point gently.
  5. Arrange the bites seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and flaky.
  7. For an extra touch, sprinkle fresh parsley over the top before serving. Enjoy warm, and consider pairing with your favorite dipping sauce!
