INGREDIENT NOTES:
VEGAN CRESCENT ROLL DOUGH:
- This component makes the flaky and buttery layers to give delicious rolls. Ready-made dough saves prep time and gives better results. You may use vegan puff pastry as per your preference.
VEGAN CHEDDAR CHEESE:
- It gives a cheesy taste and melts well into the filling. Vegan cheddar cheese includes richness and makes the rolls satisfying. You may use vegan pepper jack as an alternative.
GREEN ONIONS:
- They include mild onion flavor and freshness to the recipe. Green onions improves the color and texture of the rolls. You may use diced shallots as a substitute.
VEGAN MILK:
- We use it to brush the tops and make the rolls golden while baking. You may use unsweetened soy milk as per your choice.
SESAME SEEDS:
- They give a slight crunch and make the rolls attractive. You may skip or replace with poppy seeds as another option.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, cover the sheet with baking paper and warm the oven to 375°F.
- Mix the vegan cream cheese, green onions, vegan cheddar, jalapenos, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, onion powder, and black pepper in the bowl.
- Mix all the ingredients to make a smooth mixture, then open the crescent dough.
- Separate the dough into triangles and put 1½ tbsp of filling on the wide end.
- Roll the triangles tightly towards the end and put them on the sheet with space between them.
- Lightly brush the tops with vegan milk and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
- Bake the rolls for 15 minutes, then cool for 5 minutes.
- Lastly, serve the crescent rolls with your favourite dipping sauce.
TIPS:
