These French Dip Crescents check a lot of boxes for quick and easy dinners. Need dinner ready in less than 30 minutes? Done. And using just 4 easy ingredients? We’ve got you covered. These easy french dip crescents are a version of your favorite french dip slider – all wrapped up and easily dippable, which makes them a win for little kids, too.
They make a great appetizer, lunch, or dinner. Perfect for tailgating or nights when you don’t have a lot of time.
Recipe Ingredient Notes
To make French dip crescents, you need the following ingredients:
- Refrigerated Crescent Roll Dough
- Deli Roast Beef, sliced thin – We use deli sliced roast beef in a pinch, but this recipe tastes even better with Sunday dinner pot roast leftovers.
- Provolone Cheese
- Au Just gravy mix
Equipment Needed
For this recipe, you only need a few simple kitchen tools. We recommend using the following equipment:
How to make French Dip Crescents
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Unroll crescents onto a large ungreased cookie sheet.
- Place a slice of roast beef and a piece of cheese on each crescent.
- Roll crescents starting from the wide end and ending at the narrow end.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until crescents are a golden color.
- Prepare the Au Jus gravy as directed on package.
- Serve with Au Jus for dipping.
Storing and Other Variations
Store any leftovers in an airtight container. Keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven or Air Fryer.
Other Variations
- Try adding extra veggies like caramelized onions or sautéed green peppers.
- Substitute your favorite cheese (like pepper jack) in place of provolone.
- Add a bit of horseradish inside the crescents (or use it to dip). My kids don’t love this option as much, but I think it’s so tasty with that added kick.

What a great recipe…my hubby is going to love this! Thanks for sharing, off to pin so I can remember it for later 🙂
I have made these before and they’re great! So simple but fun and a little different.
These look amazing. My whole family would love them!!!
What a Tasty little treat.. I just pinned this on my Finger Foods board.
What a great use of crescents! I make crescent dogs in my house once a month it seems. My kids love the handheld dinners.
Thanks for this post!
I don’t know how to make these without the insides being super doughy. I’ve had this problem with other stuffed crescents. There must be something that everyone knows that I don’t…what am I doing wrong?
Thanks for posting this recipe sounds great going to make it for my picky teenagers this weekend.
I have the same problem!
I make these all the time for my preschoolers lunch box! The only tweak is that I add a bit of caramelized onion and garlic into it as well (which softens up the cheese a bit for easier rolling!). They freeze well so I can just use them as needed.
Hello there! I first discovered you gals (on YouTube) while searching recipes for the IP I received for Christmas and then I just kinda started stalking you 🤣 While we’re here staying at home like the rest of the country I was searching for something easy to make for dinner (just me and my 15 y/o daughter) and happened across this recipe. It was super easy and I had practically everything right here at home (crazy how that happened). It made quite a big batch (for just 2) but these were as good the next day (I just ate them without reheating) while working from home. I found several other recipes I plan on making soon! Thank you for taking the time to put your recipes out there for the rest of us to enjoy! Especially those of us that have no imagination when it comes to cooking!
Hi Laura. This is the sweetest comment we have received in a long time. I hope you and your daughter are doing well while being quarantined. So glad you found us. We have weekly videos on You-tube and a lot of them are for the Instant Pot. Let us know if you have any questions on recipes. We would love to help. Stay home and stay safe!!! The Six Sisters
Cyd, best wishes to you and all your families! We are both staying home and health! I’ve been watching your YouTube channel a lot more lately looking for more recipes and this weekend we’re planning on making the Lasagna in the springform pan and D&G IP Apple Crisp dessert recipe. One question?!? Do you think I should consider purchasing an extra IP pot and do you prefer a non-stick pot or a stainless steel one?
You can easily make both of these recipes with one instant pot. You may the additional accessories (pans) to make certain recipes. Some of the sisters have 2 instant pots and it is really helpful. But know that you can also get buy with one. Here is the amazon link to our favorite instant pot. It’s the Instant Pot 6 quart duo. If you have a large family you can get it in the 8 quart size. https://amzn.to/2ye9W3J
So much fun making this! It turned out delicious 😋 I tried cooking at 375 instead of the 350. The dough cooked better for me at that temperature
I loved how easy, cheap, and yummy this recipe was! My toddler and husband couldn’t get enough of them! Definite going to be a staple in our week night dinner meal planning!
Could this appetizer be any easier or more delicious?
Made these for dinner, delicious and very easy, this recipe is a keeper!
