Description
These Peach Pie Cruffins combine buttery, flaky layers of croissant‑style dough with juicy peach pie filling and warm cinnamon sugar—a sweet and indulgent treat perfect for brunch or dessert.
Ingredients
- Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- Canned peach pie filling or fresh peaches with sugar and cinnamon
- Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- Brown sugar
- Ground cinnamon
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C).
- Unroll the crescent dough onto a floured surface and press the seams together.
- Brush the surface with melted butter, then sprinkle an even layer of brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
- Spread the peach‑pie filling (or the prepared fresh‑peach mixture) over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Roll the dough into a log, then slice it lengthwise (so you expose the layers) and twist each half into a spiral.
- Place each spiral into a greased muffin cup and bake for about 18–22 minutes or until golden‑brown.
- Let the cruffins cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute fresh peaches (drained/prepped with sugar & cinnamon) instead of canned filling.
- For a dairy‑free option, use coconut oil or a plant‑based butter alternative instead of melted butter.
- Swap brown sugar with coconut sugar for a less processed sweetener.
- If using puff pastry instead of crescent dough, bake a few minutes longer until golden and puffed.
- For best texture, serve warm and fresh from the oven.
