Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Ground beef | 1 pound |
| Small onion, finely diced | 1 |
| Shredded cheddar cheese | 1 cup |
| Refrigerated crescent roll dough | 1 package (8 oz) |
| Ketchup | 2 tablespoons |
| Mustard | 1 tablespoon |
| Worcestershire sauce | 1 tablespoon |
| Salt and pepper | To taste |
| Olive oil | 1 tablespoon |
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to fully preheat while you prepare the filling.
Step 2: Cook the Filling
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 3–4 minutes. Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned, around 6–8 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
Step 3: Add Flavor
Stir in the ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Let the mixture simmer for 2–3 more minutes so the flavors can blend. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 4: Prepare the Dough
Unroll the crescent roll dough on a flat surface and separate it into 8 triangles.
Step 5: Fill the Pockets
Place a spoonful of the beef mixture on the wide end of each triangle. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Step 6: Fold and Seal
Carefully fold each triangle over the filling, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the tip. Pinch the edges to seal the pocket completely.
Step 7: Bake
Transfer the filled pockets to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Space them out evenly and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Step 8: Serve
Let the pockets cool for a few minutes out of the oven, then serve warm. Perfect for dipping in extra ketchup or your favorite burger sauce!
