Peach Pie Cruffins combine the flaky, buttery texture of croissants with the fruity sweetness of peach pie filling, twisted into a delightful spiral and baked golden brown. This easy-to-make recipe uses crescent dough filled with cinnamon-spiced peach preserves and finishes with a luscious powdered sugar glaze, perfect for breakfast or dessert treats.

Ingredients

Scale

Pastry

  • 3 cans refrigerated crescent dough (8 ounces each)
  • 1 cup peach preserves (organic if possible)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Glaze

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Peach Mixture: In a bowl, thoroughly mix the peach preserves with ground cinnamon until combined, ensuring the filling has a balanced warm spice flavor.
  3. Shape Dough Rectangles: Roll out the crescent dough on a clean surface and press the seams together carefully to create uniform rectangles suitable for rolling.
  4. Spread Filling: Evenly spread the cinnamon peach mixture over each dough rectangle, leaving a small border at the edges to seal the shapes.
  5. Roll and Slice: Roll each dough rectangle into a tight log, then slice each log in half lengthwise to create two strips for twisting.
  6. Twist and Place in Tin: Twist each half strip into a spiral, then place them upright into the muffin tin cups, spacing them slightly apart to allow expansion during baking.
  7. Bake: Bake the cruffins for 18 to 20 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden brown, indicating the dough is cooked through and flaky.
  8. Make Glaze: While warm, whisk together the powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream until smooth to create a drizzling glaze.
  9. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm cruffins. Allow the glaze to set slightly before serving for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use organic peach preserves for a fresher, more natural flavor.
  • Ensure to seal the crescent dough seams well to avoid filling leakage during baking.
  • Allow cruffins to cool slightly before glazing to prevent glaze from melting too much.
  • These cruffins are best served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat gently in a warm oven for a crispier texture before serving leftovers.
