My Favorite Crescent Rolls Are Finally Back in Stock—and No, They Aren’t From Pillsbury

I buy at least 3 cans every week.

After almost a year of checking weekly, my favorite crescent rolls are back! And they might not be the brand you think they are.

I’m not the only one who thinks this brand actually makes the best crescent rolls. Last year, I put the top brands up to the test, a blind test actually, and had 12 testers taste each pillowy roll. The winner was clear: the Trader Joe’s crescent rolls have the best flavor, texture, and color. But almost as quickly as we picked our winner, the Trader Joe’s crescent rolls were nowhere to be seen….until now!

Trader Joe's Crescent Rolls

But what exactly make Trader Joe's crescent rolls so good? It comes down to the fact that they taste the closest to homemade. Their golden color, buttery flavor, chewy but not dense texture, and perfect balance of sweet and savory flavor make them a weekly purchase for my fridge.

In fact, I buy them 3 cans at a time (unfortunately, you can't freeze them due to the pressurized can, otherwise I would stock up on many more than that!). Generally, the expiration date is at least a month after purchasing and while you can’t freeze the dough, you can freeze them after they are baked. Simply make a double batch of whatever you’re making (usually these Ham and Cheese Roll Ups for me) and freeze them in a large zip-top bag for a quick breakfast.

My excitement is only heightened by the fact that they are back before the holidays, which is by far the time when canned crescent roll dough consumption is at an all time high. Between unexpected guests, hungry teenagers, picky toddlers, and holiday parties, there’s always a time when you can pop that can and make a snack. And for all the refrigerator organizer space nerds like me, it’s even satisfying that the slim can doesn’t take up a lot of room in the fridge, or can be stored on the door with the condiments.

Need some inspiration for what to do with the can beyond making plain crescent rolls? Check out this Sopapilla Cheecake Pie, Sausage Casserole (I add chopped peppers and onions), Zucchini Pie, or any of the many breakfast casseroles that all use crescent rolls.
