Delight in these Peach Pie Cruffins, a delightful fusion of croissant and muffin filled with sweet peach preserves and a hint of cinnamon. Baked until golden and finished with a luscious powdered sugar glaze, these treats are perfect for breakfast or an indulgent snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

  • 3 cans refrigerated crescent dough (8 ounces each)

Filling

  • 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: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin tin by lining it with muffin liners for easy removal and clean-up.
  2. Mix Filling: In a bowl, combine the peach preserves and ground cinnamon thoroughly to infuse the preserves with warm spice flavor.
  3. Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent dough and press the seams to form solid rectangles, preventing the filling from leaking out during baking.
  4. Fill Dough: Evenly spread the peach and cinnamon mixture over each dough rectangle, ensuring consistent flavor throughout.
  5. Shape Cruffins: Roll each dough rectangle into a log, slice it in half lengthwise, and twist each piece into a spiral shape for that characteristic cruffin look.
  6. Bake: Place the twisted dough spirals into the prepared muffin tin and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
  7. Make Glaze and Finish: While the cruffins bake, whisk together the powdered sugar and heavy cream until smooth. Once the cruffins are warm out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over the top for a sweet finishing touch.

Notes

  • For best results, use organic peach preserves to enhance flavor and quality.
  • You can substitute heavy whipping cream with milk for a lighter glaze but the consistency may vary.
  • Make sure the dough seams are well sealed to prevent filling leakage.
  • Allow cruffins to cool slightly before glazing to avoid glaze melting off immediately.
  • Serves well warm, and leftovers can be reheated gently in the oven.
