Preparation

Step 1

For the caramelized pineapple and onions:

Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat, add the onions and sauté until light caramelized, about 10 minutes, before adding the pineapple and sautéing for another 5 minutes and setting aside.

For the sauce:

Heat everything in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar has meted and everything is mixed well.

For the rolls:

Unroll the dough in a single rectangle, top with the slices of ham and swiss, sprinkle on the onions and pineapple, roll the dough up, slice it into 12 and place them in a large greased baking pan.

Pour the sauce over the rolls and sprinkle on the poppy seeds.

Bake in a 350F/180C oven until the dough is a lightly golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Option: Use a pizza crust or a package of puff pastry instead of the crescent roll dough.
