Description
Peach Pie Cruffins are a delightful hybrid of croissants and muffins, filled with peach preserves and cinnamon, then topped with a sweet glaze for a cozy, flaky dessert that's simple yet impressive.
Ingredients
- 3 cans refrigerated crescent dough (8 ounces each)
- 1 cup peach preserves
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease or line a muffin tin.
- In a small bowl, mix peach preserves and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Unroll each can of crescent dough into a flat rectangle, pressing perforated seams to seal.
- Spread approximately ⅓ cup of the peach mixture over each rectangle.
- Roll each rectangle from the long edge into a log, then cut each log in half and slice each half lengthwise to make four strips per can.
- Twist each strip and coil into a spiral, tucking ends underneath. Place each spiral into a muffin cup.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
- While baking, whisk powdered sugar and heavy cream until smooth to make the glaze.
- Drizzle glaze over warm cruffins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Swap peach preserves with apricot or apple jam for variety.
- Add chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts for texture.
- Dust tops with coarse sugar or cinnamon sugar before baking for a decorative touch.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 day or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes to refresh.
