Main Ingredients
- Crescent Roll Dough (1 package, about 8 oz)
- Corned Beef (8 oz, thinly sliced)
- Swiss Cheese (1 cup shredded or sliced)
- Sauerkraut (1/2 cup, well drained)
- Thousand Island Dressing (1/4 cup)
- Preheat and Prepare Your Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick silicone mat to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Roll Out the Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the lined baking sheet. Gently press the seams together to form one large rectangle.
- Layer the Classic Reuben Ingredients: Spread the well-drained sauerkraut evenly over the dough. Next, lay the thinly sliced corned beef on top, followed by a generous sprinkle of Swiss cheese. Drizzle the Thousand Island dressing evenly over the cheese layer.
- Roll and Seal the Dough: Carefully roll the dough from one edge to the other, forming a log. Tuck in the ends and pinch all seams tightly to seal the filling inside.
- Bake Until Golden and Melty: Place the roll in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Slice and Serve Warm: Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes to set. Slice into portions and serve immediately for the best melty, flavorful experience.
Notes
- Drain sauerkraut well to avoid soggy dough.
- Use thinly sliced meat to ensure even cooking and easy slicing.
- Let the bake cool slightly before slicing to hold its shape.
- Brush the top with melted butter before baking for extra golden color and flavor.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking during baking.
