- → Can I prep this in advance?
- You can cook the meat ahead, but don’t put it together or bake until you're ready to serve. That keeps the pastry fresh and flaky.
- → What can I substitute for crescent dough?
- You could use puff pastry or pizza dough instead, but the texture and bake time might differ. Crescent rolls are ideal for that soft and golden finish.
- → Can I mix in other toppings?
- Of course! Add things like tomatoes, olives, or peppers after baking so they don’t add unwanted sogginess to the dough.
- → How do I avoid a soggy base?
- Drain all the oil or fat from the meat and cool it a bit before assembly, which keeps the dough from soaking up too much moisture.
- → Could I swap the beef for turkey?
- Sure thing! Ground turkey or chicken works perfectly. Just season it well since it’s milder in flavor than beef.
