Ingredients
- 8 Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
- 3 Baby Carrots
- 16 Raisins
- 1 slice Provolone Cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Base: Place the 8 Pillsbury Crescent Rolls on a baking pan, keeping them close but not touching.
- Shape the Bunny Ears: Unroll one crescent roll carefully. Take the ends of this unrolled dough and bring them together in the middle to form the bunny ears shape.
- Assemble the Buns: Place the shaped ears on top of one of the whole crescent rolls on the pan to resemble bunny ears.
- Add Whiskers: Slice a few baby carrots into thin strips. Press these strips gently onto the sides of each bun to imitate bunny whiskers.
- Create the Nose: Cut a small triangle or oval shape from a baby carrot to form the bunny’s nose. Press it gently on the dough between the whiskers.
- Make Eyes: Place two raisins on each bun to serve as the eyes, positioning them above the carrot nose.
- Add Cheese Details: Cut small shapes or strips from the Provolone cheese to add features like inner ears or a mouth if desired, and place on the buns.
- Bake: Bake the assembled buns according to the crescent roll package instructions, typically at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
- Use care when handling and assembling the crescent rolls to maintain the bunny shapes.
- Substitute raisins with chocolate chips or berries for different eye variations.
- For a cheesier flavor, add a small slice of cheese inside each crescent roll before shaping.
- Serve warm for best taste and soft texture.
- These buns are ideal for Easter parties, family breakfasts, or kids’ snacks.
