Italian Sub Crescent Ring has all the flavors of an Italian sub wrapped in buttery crescent roll dough. Ham, salami, provolone, and roasted peppers are layered inside and baked until the crescent ring is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
This is such a fun way to turn a classic Italian sub into an easy appetizer or dinner. I especially like making it when everyone can pull off a warm, cheesy slice and grab their favorite dipping sauce.
Why I Love This Recipe
About the Ingredients ⭐
- Ham & Salami: Sliced ham and hard salami give the crescent ring its classic Italian sub flavor.

How to Make Italian Sub Crescent Ring
Arrange the Dough: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Arrange the crescent dough in a ring on a baking sheet, overlapping the wide ends in the center.
Add the Fillings: Layer the provolone, ham, salami, roasted peppers, and remaining provolone over the wide ends of the dough.
Form the Ring: Fold the pointed ends of the crescent dough over the filling and tuck them underneath to form the ring.
Bake: Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Finish the Top: If desired, brush the warm crescent ring with melted butter and sprinkle with Romano cheese.
Tips I Found Helpful 💙
- Overlap the Dough: Keep the wide ends slightly overlapping so the filling stays inside the ring.
- Layer Evenly: Spread the meat, cheese, and peppers evenly so every slice gets some of each.
- Drain the Peppers: Pat roasted peppers dry before adding them so the crescent dough doesn’t get soggy.
- Watch the Dough: Bake until the crescent ring is golden brown and fully cooked in the center.
How To Store Leftovers
Store leftover Italian Sub Crescent Ring in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual slices in the air fryer or oven until warmed through and the crescent dough is crisp again.
