4. Roll into Pockets
Starting from the wide end, gently roll each triangle toward the tip, enclosing the filling inside.
- Tuck in the sides slightly as you roll to create a “pocket”
- Make sure the edges are sealed so the cheese doesn’t leak out while baking
5. Bake to Golden Perfection
Place the filled crescent pockets onto your prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until:
- The tops are golden brown
- The dough is fully cooked and flaky
6. Heat the Au Jus
While the pockets bake, warm your au jus gravy in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Stir occasionally until hot.
7. Serve and Dip
Remove the crescent pockets from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes.
Serve warm with a small bowl of au jus on the side for dipping.
Tips for the Best Results
- Don’t overfill – too much meat or cheese can cause leaks
- Seal edges well to keep everything inside
- Use quality roast beef for better flavor
- Brush tops with a little melted butter for extra golden color
Easy Variations
Want to switch things up? Try these ideas:
- Add sautéed onions or mushrooms for extra flavor
- Use mozzarella or cheddar for a different cheesy twist
- Spice it up with a bit of horseradish sauce inside
- Make it mini by cutting dough smaller for bite-sized snacks
