Description

These golden cheeseburger pockets are stuffed with seasoned beef, gooey melted cheese, and classic toppings—all wrapped in crescent dough for a fun and easy meal.


Ingredients

1 lb ground beef or turkey

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon minced dried onion

2 tablespoons mustard

2 tablespoons ketchup

4 oz American cheese

1 (8 oz) package Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

1 egg, whisked

1 tablespoon sesame seeds


Instructions

Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC).

In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef with salt, pepper, and dried onion. Break up the meat and cook until no longer pink. Drain or blot excess grease.

Stir in mustard, ketchup, and cheese until melted and combined. Remove from heat.

Unroll crescent dough and press seams together. Cut into 6 equal rectangles.

Place beef mixture onto one side of each rectangle. Fold dough over filling and press edges to seal.

Place on a baking sheet. Brush tops with whisked egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Meat options: Swap beef for ground turkey for a leaner version.

Cheese ideas: Try shredded cheddar or pepper jack for variety.

Air fryer option: Cook at 350ºF for 10–12 minutes until golden.

Toppings: Add pickles or diced onions inside for more “burger” flavor.

Great for meal prep—just reheat in the oven or air fryer!
