Crescent Roll Recipe


Guhlia

Recommended Posts

Guhlia Rising Star
I'll try again:

Crescent Rolls

1/2 stick butter ( 1/4c) room temp.

3/4 c. small curd cottage cheese

1 c. gluten-free flour mix ( rice,potato starch,tapicoa )

1 tsp. xanthan gum

1/8 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 TBSP sugar

In mixer bowl combine butter & cottage cheese until well blended. Add dry ingredients. Mix until a ball forms.

Wrap in plastic wrap & chill for several hours.

On a lightly floured parchment paper, roll dough into a 14 inch circle. Cut into 8 triangles ( make sure to roll thin), Pizza cutter works well for cutting...

Roll each triangle from wide end to tip. Turn ends to make a crescent shape. Bake 350 for approx 20 to 30 min..

sorry for the first post but it is correct now. Yea, flour does help!!!!!!!!!!!

Mamaw, I just wanted to say that this is possibly my favorite recipe! It is SOOOOOO versatile. Its also really easy to double and triple. Out of one tripled batch I can make pizza crusts (delicious and tastes very similar to Pizza Hut's pan pizza without all the grease), crescent rolls, turnovers, and still have enough left to make a cinnamon bun. I LOVE THIS RECIPE! THANK YOU! The dough also stays nice in the fridge for days. I think I've left it in there for up to 4 days and have never had a problem. :)

That looks fabulous! I copied it and will try it some time.

This looks easy.... I no longer do much baking but might be willing to give this a try. Can you make up the pizza crusts, bake them with no toppings and freeze them for later use? Just curious... if you have never tried to do this, I may still give it a try and see if they can be frozen after being baked.

I think I would try freezing the dough, thaw, top, and bake. OR bake, freeze, top, reheat without thawing. Maybe I'll try both ways................

I haven't tried freezing, but I can tell you that I bake them first without toppings until lightly browned, then put toppings and sauce on to finish. I imagine you could freeze it after the first bake.

Hi Angie

I agree this is a terrific recipe. I also make hot pockets using a similar recipe.

2 c. betterbatter flour

1 tsp. salt

1 c. unsalted butter

4 tbsp cream cheese

8 tbsp. ice water.

combine flour, salt , butter, cream cheese in a food processor. Process until coarse crumbs form. ( I don't have a food processor so I just used my hands)

With processor running add ice water & process to form a dough. Turn out onto a floured board & press into a ball.

Divide dough in half, wrap tightly in plastic wrap & refridgerate at least a half hour.

Roll out to desire thickness.

Put a filling of your choice & roll or make shapes & seal them. I baked them for about 15 min or so at 350 degrees.

For filling I made several different ones. I used sandwich pepperoni, hard salami, & provolone cheese. I made some with peanut butter & jelly ( made these round so they looked like the clones). I did meat pasties, I did pizza sauce , green peppers, onions, mushrooms, & pepperoni & cooked drained sausage. These work great for school lunches.

Both these recipes originally came from Naomi Poe from betterbatter flour.

If you haven't tried her flour blend it is a one to one sub for wheat recipes. It is worth the price......

Regarding small curd cottage cheese. I tried a recipe using this recipe and couldn't get the curds to blend. There were yellow spots in my muffins. I'm wondering if one could use ricotta cheese instead? I love the ricotta cheese muffin recipe.

I made those last night too! Here's a picture. My Husband thinks I am weird because I am always taking pictures of our food. :lol:

The recipe is originally from Open Original Shared Link modified from the Open Original Shared Link. Has anyone tried any of their other recipes? Some of them look really good.

I think ricotta would work just fine. There is a recipe on the Open Original Shared Linkthat uses ricotta, with all other recipe components being the same. I don't end up with lumps in my cottage cheese, but I do let my Kitchenaid whip the butter and cottage cheese for quite a while.

Can white rice flour be used in the gluten-free flour mix or do you use brown rice?

Yelloe Rose,

White rice four will work.

Larry Mac,

Ricotta works fine.

If you go onto betterbatter site there are clones for Krispy Kreme Donuts, soft pretzels, & loads more excellent recipes. The flour blend does just about anything one could hope for>>>>>>

I have also in the past used nut filling or fruit fillings & roll up the crossiants.

enjoy

I just wanted to add that this recipe makes THE BEST hamburger rolls that I've had since going gluten free. They were super easy to make also. I made three hamburger rolls and two personal sized pizzas out of a double batch (could have made 4 rolls and no pizzas). They are reminiscent of a kaiser roll (kind of). Very tasty! They don't quite seem done in the center when cut, but they definitely taste done and there's nothing in them that can't be eaten raw, so... I highly recommend trying them as hamburger buns. :)

mamaw Community Regular

Hi Angie

Did you just make a ball & flatten it a bit for the hamburger bun? Did you bake it any longer?

Have you tried Against The Grain rolls yet? They are soooo good for burgers, sloppy joe's, cold cuts & more...

I'm getting picky! I have Everybody Eats ficeille crusty rolls for pasta, ATG for sandwiches, gluten-free GreatBakes for Bagels & Eng. muffins, Anna's bread mix, & a batter bread (scratch) from gluten-free Living!!!! Plus Betterbatter flour!

Try the hot pockets , they are a winner at our house!!!

Yeah, I just made a big old dough ball, about the size of a thin hamburger roll and flattened it. It didn't rise a whole lot, but enough to cut in half. They were amazing! Very filling though, probably due to the cottage cheese and all that butter in the rolls. :) I really have no idea how long I baked them for. I just kept checking on them every few minutes until they were brown and crusty looking on top. ??? Maybe 25-35 minutes? I'm really not sure. I did bake them at the temp the recipe calls for if that helps.

I try not to buy the premade stuff just because of cost. That stuff is just so darn expensive. I don't think I've tried anything Grainless Baker. No one around here carries anything made by them and I try not to order stuff online because of shipping. I wish I had a Whole Foods or Wegmans really close by.

So far, that recipe you posted is probably my favorite. It is SO versatile! I can make pretty much anything with it that's supposed to be soft and bready. I even made pizza rolls (reminded me of Totino's, but not the same at all). I chopped up pepperoni and added mozzerella, parmesean, italian seasoning, and garlic then formed them into little biscuits and baked. They were SOOOOO good, the perfect snack food. :) I have the feeling that recipe might also make good soft pretzels, but I haven't tried it yet. I'm not sure how it will fair through boiling. I guess maybe one of these days I'll have to try it.

Anyway, my thanks goes out to you for the recipe. I never, ever would have thought to use cottage cheese in bread. :)

Hey Angie

Soft pretzels are on Naomi's site. SHe has the Auntie Anne's clone & another one. Her site is very good & informative as well. Do you belong to a support group? I know Naomi sells flour at the Lancaster group. I can't remember exactly where you are located....I had her at our group & everyone loved her..... She's only 30 & lots of fun, & knowledge....& owns a business to boot!!!!!

I live about 20 minutes outside of Lancaster city. I don't belong to a support group, mostly because I'm very awkward around people. I get anxious in new settings also, so I haven't joined one. (can you say asperger's? lol)

What is Naomi's site??? I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO miss Auntie Anne's pretzels! I would do almost anything to have an exact replica. Any chance anyone knows how to duplicate their delicious sweet mustard?

Posting to an old thread, is that ok? Thank you for this recipe! Before my flare-up recently, I made a fantastic cheese danish using store bought crescent rolls. I'm craving it again! So glad I found this through the search field.

This is absolutely great and an easy recipe to follow. I use better batter

and this dough lasts in the fridge for a week. I can just pull it out and use it to make crescent rolls, calzones etc.

      There are thirteen essential vitamins:  eight B vitamins, four fat soluble vitamins, and Vitamin C.  They all work together.   If you are deficient in one, you are probably low in the other dozen.  Celiac Disease affects the absorption of all the vitamins, and the dozen or so essential minerals, as well.  Cobalamine Vitamin B12, needs Folate B9 and Pyridoxine B6 to function properly.  Pyridoxine B6 needs Riboflavin B2.  Vitamin C is needed to interact with B12 as well.  Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 are also needed to provide the energy for these vitamins to function properly.  If one is also low in Folate and Pyridoxine, B12 Cobalamine is not going to be able to function properly and the body doesn't bother to absorb it.   Vitamin D is safe even in high doses.  Vitamin D3 should be supplemented.  Vitamin D2 is not as well utilized because it's synthetic, not a form the body can utilize easily.  Vitamin D must be activated by Thiamine Vitamin B1.  Insufficient Thiamine B1 will make one feel "dopey".  Thiamine is needed for brain function.  The brain uses as much energy just thinking as your muscles do while running a marathon.   Multivitamins do not contain sufficient amounts of essential vitamins to correct nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementing with ALL eight B vitamins, extra Thiamine (don't use the form thiamine mononitrate because it's not absorbed nor utilized well), Vitamin C and the four fat soluble vitamins will be more beneficial than just supplementing one or two vitamins by themselves. With sufficient amounts of essential vitamins, the immune system gets regulated and becomes less reactive to other things like pollen, molds and animal dander.  Sleep apnea is frequently found in Thiamine insufficiency.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted if not needed.  The B vitamins all work together.  Supplement them together.

      i have been gluten free for about 2 yrs i had a ttg recently done my blood test was .7 higher then last time. i must be doing something wrong im still not in the normal range. What advice would anyone give?
    • Michelle Amirault-Packard
      He should definitely have his vitamin D and Vitamin B12 checked.  I have celiac and i always felt tired, sometimes i described it as dopy.My vitamin D is always low at times extremely low which can affect you. But  I also did some research and contacted my doctor to see if she checked my Vitamin B12 and She said she didn’t check my vitamin B-12 because a wasn’t Anemic and the normal protocol is , if you are not Anemic they don’t test for B-12.  She had no problem doing the test for me and it came back super super deficient . So I was given a shot of B12 once a week for 4 weeks and I give myself 1 shot intramuscular once a month now for 18 years. Once your B12 is low it can take a long time to bring it back up and sustain it. I think it took about 6 months to get a decent number and about a year to get it right. I do get my Vitamin D checked but not yearly more like every other year because it is a more expensive test and I tend to always be low. I do take a vitamin D supplement but I would talk to your doctor before taking a supplement to make sure you don’t take too much especially if you are already taking a multivitamin. Because too much D can also have some bad side effects.  Celiacs tend to be able to take a higher dose due to our digestive and malabsorption issues but always talk to your doctor before taking. Other things could be making him feel extremely tired  like new allergies like pollens, animals, molds etc.. sleep apnea is a huge one( cause extreme fatigue) and some medications. Just other things he can have checked! Good luck

      I suggest you eliminate dairy from your son's diet next.  Cow's milk protein, Casein, can trigger tTg IgA antibody production, the same as gluten, because casein contains segments of proteins that resemble gluten protein segments.   Mucosal reactivity to cow's milk protein in coeliac disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1810502/ I cannot consume dairy products.  Some people find they can tolerate A2 dairy without a reaction. Corn is another frequently hard to tolerate food because the protein zein in corn also resembles the protein structure of gluten.   Do research in Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and TTFD thiamine.  Taking TTFD really can make a dramatic difference, speaking from personal experience. https://hormonesmatter.com/energy-deficiency-asd/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      It sounds like you're doing everything right with your gluten-free diet, yet still experiencing significant discomfort, which must be frustrating. Since your stool sample came back normal but symptoms persist, pushing for further investigation—like a colonoscopy or biopsy—is a reasonable next step. You might also want to discuss the possibility of additional conditions, such as IBS, microscopic colitis, or other inflammatory issues, with your doctor. Tracking your symptoms, diet, and triggers in detail could help identify patterns. Don’t hesitate to advocate for yourself—if your current doctor isn’t addressing your concerns, seeking a second opinion or a referral to a gastroenterologist could be beneficial. You’re right to seek answers, and I hope you find relief soon. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
