Ingredient Highlights
- Crescent Roll Dough: Forms the buttery, flaky crust that holds everything together.
- Italian Meats: Salami, ham, and pepperoni bring bold flavors typical of an Italian sub.
- Cheeses: Provolone and mozzarella melt beautifully and provide the perfect creamy contrast.
- Egg Wash: Ensures a golden, shiny top crust while helping to bind everything together.
- Seasonings: Italian seasoning and garlic powder add extra layers of flavor.
Instructions
Prepare the Layers:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Crescent Roll Base: Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the baking dish, pinching the seams together to create a solid layer.
- Layer the Meats and Cheeses: Start with a layer of salami, followed by ham, then pepperoni. Add the provolone and mozzarella slices evenly over the top.
- Add the Egg Layer: Beat 2 of the eggs and drizzle them evenly over the meats and cheeses. This helps bind the layers and adds richness.
- Season: Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning (if using), and garlic powder for extra flavor.
Top and Bake:
- Top with the Second Crescent Roll Layer: Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it over the top, pinching the seams together and sealing the edges.
- Egg Wash: Beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and brush it over the top of the crescent roll dough for a golden finish.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and puffy.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the sandwich to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into squares or rectangles.
