Perfect for brunch, this beautiful braid is filled with eggs, ham, and cheese. Using refrigerated crescent rolls makes it a snap to prepare.

Ingredients

  • 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls , 8 ounce
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced deli ham , chopped
  • 4 ounces cream cheese , softened
  • 0.5 cups milk
  • 1 egg , separated
  • 7 eggs
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 0.25 cups chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 0.5 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Unroll each tube of crescent dough, but do not separate rectangles. Place side-by-side on prepared baking sheet with long sides touching; press and seal seams and perforations. Arrange ham lengthwise down center third of rectangle.

  3. 3

    Beat cream cheese and milk in a bowl. Separate one egg, placing egg white aside. Stir egg yolk, remaining eggs, salt, and pepper into cream cheese mixture; fold in red pepper and onion.

  4. 4

    Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; pour egg mixture into skillet and cook until just set, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and spoon eggs over ham; sprinkle with Cheddar cheese.

  5. 5

    Cut 1-inch-wide strips towards the center to within 1/2-inch of filling on each long side of dough. Starting at one end, fold alternating strips at an angle across filling; pinch ends to seal and tuck under. Beat reserved egg white and brush over dough.

  6. 6

    Bake in preheated oven until golden, 25 to 28 minutes.
