Peach Pie Crescent Cruffins (Printable Version)

Flaky crescents with cinnamon peach filling and a creamy sugar glaze for a warm, fruit-filled treat.

# Ingredients:

→ Dough

01 - 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (ensure cold and uncracked)

→ Filling

02 - 80 ml peach preserves containing real fruit pieces
03 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

→ Glaze

04 - 60 g powdered sugar
05 - 30 ml heavy whipping cream

# Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 190°C and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners. Clear a clean workspace for dough shaping.
02 - In a small bowl, thoroughly mix peach preserves with ground cinnamon to evenly distribute the spice.
03 - Unroll the crescent dough onto a clean surface. Press seams firmly together using fingers or a rolling pin to create a uniform rectangle of consistent thickness.
04 - Evenly spread approximately 80 ml of the peach cinnamon mixture over the dough surface, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent filling leakage during rolling.
05 - Roll the dough tightly along the long edge to form a log. Slice the log in half crosswise and then each half lengthwise to create four strips revealing multiple layers of filling.
06 - Gently twist each strip to expose more filling, then coil into a spiral, tucking the ends underneath. Place each spiral into a muffin cup with the swirl facing upward.
07 - Bake the shaped cruffins in the oven’s center rack for 18 to 20 minutes until puffed, golden, and slightly bubbly at edges.
08 - While baking, whisk powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream until the glaze is smooth and pourable. Adjust consistency by adding more cream or sugar as needed.
09 - Allow cruffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then loosen edges if necessary. Drizzle glaze generously over warm cruffins, letting it seep into the spirals. Transfer to a rack and serve warm.

# Notes:

01 - Work with cold dough for easier handling and to maintain flakiness.
02 - Twist strips gently to avoid losing filling.
03 - Apply glaze while warm to enhance absorption and shine.
04 - Store leftovers at room temperature up to two days or refrigerate for extended freshness; reheat before serving.
