Short Cut Star Bread

This Star Bread is a big hit in our home for the holidays! It’s so delicious and easy to make. I use store bought crescent dough, which is perfect if you’re in a time crunch, but you can feel free to make your own dough.  For easier directions, watch my YouTube video below and I will show you how!
