Wreath Shaped Egg Ham (Printable)

A savory centerpiece with eggs, ham, cheese, and peppers baked in a golden dough wreath shape.

# Ingredient List:

→ Dough

01 - 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough

→ Filling

02 - 8 large eggs
03 - 1/2 cup whole milk
04 - 1 cup diced cooked ham
05 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
06 - 1/2 cup diced bell pepper (any color)
07 - 1/4 cup sliced green onions
08 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
09 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

→ Topping

10 - 2 tablespoons melted butter
11 - 1 tablespoon poppy or sesame seeds (optional)

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Fold in ham, cheddar cheese, diced bell pepper, and green onions.
03 - Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and stir gently until just softly set. Remove from heat immediately to avoid overcooking.
04 - On the prepared baking sheet, arrange crescent roll triangles in a circle approximately 12 inches in diameter, overlapping the wide ends in the center with the points facing outward.
05 - Evenly spoon the partially cooked egg mixture around the overlapping dough in a ring. Fold the pointed ends of each dough triangle over the filling and tuck under the center to seal, leaving the center open.
06 - Brush the exposed dough with melted butter and optionally sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds.
07 - Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and the filling is fully set.
08 - Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before slicing and serving.
