These rolls are easy to make and versatile: they work as a special weeknight side or as part of a holiday spread alongside classics like stuffing and roasted turkey. They’ve become a requested favorite in many households for good reason.

Ingredient Notes

Full recipe measurements are in the recipe card below.

Crescent roll package, wedge of brie, rosemary sprigs and other ingredients on surface.
  • Crescent roll dough: Any 8-count package will work—store brand or name brand. Follow the package baking temperature for best results.
  • Brie: You can leave the rind on if you prefer, but removing the thicker outer edge helps the cheese melt more smoothly and improves the “cheese pull.”

Ways to vary this recipe

  • Try a different cheese: Mozzarella or cream cheese are good alternatives if you want a milder or more stringy melt.
  • Swap the herb: Thyme pairs nicely if you don’t have rosemary on hand.
  • Add meat: Finely diced ham, chopped bacon, or a thin strip of prosciutto add savory depth.

Step 1: Preheat the oven according to the crescent roll package. Chop the rosemary, pat the pomegranate arils dry, and cut the brie into 1½–2 inch pieces. Lay each crescent triangle flat and place a piece of brie, 4–5 pomegranate arils and a pinch of rosemary near the wide edge.

Step 2: Roll the dough tightly from the wide edge toward the point to form crescents. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.

Step 3: Bake for 9–12 minutes or according to package directions, until the crescents are golden brown and the cheese has melted.

Step 4: Mix melted butter with honey, then brush the mixture over the warm rolls and finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Let cool 3–5 minutes before serving so the cheese sets slightly.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2–3 days. These are best served fresh but reheat well in a warm oven for a few minutes to restore the texture and melt the cheese again.
