Cheesy Cheddar Bacon Bombs
This savory appetizer has a creamy, cheesy, and smoky bacon filling surrounded by a buttery puff pastry. It’s made with only 5-ingredients and is um um good.
I’m really excited to be sharing my first savoury post. I’m making this specifically for Fiesta Friday’s One Year Anniversary Celebration. A big thank you to Angie@TheNoviceGardener for hosting this fabulous party every week and to all her delightful co-hosts over the year. I have met so many wonderful fellow bloggers through Fiesta Friday. It is truly a party of sharing delicious food ideas and meeting amazing people.
So, all you need for this recipe is one package of Pillsbury crescent rolls, half a block of cream cheese, 4 strips of cooked and diced bacon, and one green onion stalk.
You mix everything together, spoon it onto the pastry dough, fold up the corners, pinch the seams together, and bake for 8-10 minutes. What you get is a soft, cheesy, smoky, salty, little bites of heaven.
This recipe makes 8 pieces, so feel free to double or triple the recipe depending on the number of people you are serving. Now, the most important thing is to enjoy these babies warm because nothing beats melty cheese, am I right?

I baked these for my kids the other day and they could not stop asking for more!
Would this recipe go well with your flaky pie crust recipe?
Hi Mitch,
I recommend using the Pillsbury crescent rolls because the pie crust is too delicate to work with for this recipe. Thank you for your question and have a lovely day!
