Ingredients:

• 2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• Marinara sauce, for dipping (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
   • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes.
2. Prepare the Filling:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried parsley, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Assemble the Crescent Ring:
   • On a clean surface, unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.
   • Arrange the triangles in a circle on a parchment-lined air fryer basket or tray, with the pointed ends facing outward and overlapping slightly, to form a ring.
   • Press the seams together to seal.
   • Spoon the cheese mixture onto the wide ends of the crescent triangles, evenly distributing it around the ring.
4. Fold and Bake:
   • Fold the pointed ends of the crescent triangles over the filling and tuck them under the wide ends to secure, creating a ring shape.
   • Brush the top of the crescent ring with melted butter.
5. Air Fry:
   • Place the assembled crescent ring in the preheated air fryer basket or on the tray.
   • Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Serve:
   • Carefully remove the cheese crescent ring from the air fryer.
   • Transfer it to a serving platter and slice into individual portions.
   • Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
7. Enjoy:
   • Enjoy the cheesy goodness of this air fryer cheese crescent ring as a delicious appetizer or snack!

Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite cheeses or add-ins, such as cooked bacon, diced ham, or chopped spinach. Adjust the cooking time as needed based on your air fryer model and the thickness of the crescent dough.
