Ingredients

  • 1 can Pillsbury Original Crescents
    Crescents Original
  • 6-8 slices of thinly sliced pancetta
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2/3 cup blanched asparagus pieces (approx. 2″-long slices)
  • 1 cup shredded asiago cheese

Directions

  1. In a hot pan, fry pancetta slices until browned and lightly crisped. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  3. Separate crescent dough into 2 long rectangles. Press rectangles in bottom of ungreased 8″ x 12″ glass baking dish so it comes 1/2″ up sides of dish. (If using an oval gratin dish as in the photo, trim around edges and patch spaces with scraps of crescent dough.)
  4. In bowl, beat eggs; add milk, asparagus and cheese. Pour into dough-lined pan. Top with fanned pancetta slices.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until set.
