Delight in these Peach Pie Cruffins, a delectable fusion of croissant and muffin textures filled with sweet peach preserves and dusted with cinnamon. Perfectly golden and finished with a creamy glaze, these cruffins offer a comforting treat ideal for breakfast or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 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 line a muffin tin with cupcake liners to prepare for baking the cruffins.
  2. Prepare Filling: In a small bowl, combine the peach preserves with ground cinnamon, mixing well to evenly distribute the spice throughout the preserves.
  3. Shape Dough: Unroll the crescent dough onto a flat surface, pressing the seams together firmly to create larger rectangular sheets for easier filling application.
  4. Add Filling: Spread the cinnamon peach mixture evenly across each rectangle, ensuring a generous layer for flavor in every bite.
  5. Form Rolls: Carefully roll each dough rectangle into a log shape. Then, slice each log in half and twist each piece gently into a spiral to create the signature cruffin shape.
  6. Bake: Place the twisted dough spirals into the prepared muffin tin and bake them for 18 to 20 minutes, or until they achieve a golden-brown finish.
  7. Prepare Glaze and Finish: While the cruffins bake, whisk together the powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream until smooth to form a glaze. Once the cruffins are warm out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over the top for a sweet, creamy finish.

Notes

  • For best results, use organic peach preserves for a fresher, more natural flavor.
  • Ensure the dough seams are sealed tightly to prevent filling leakage during baking.
  • Allow cruffins to cool slightly before glazing to help the glaze set properly.
  • Can be served warm or at room temperature and pairs wonderfully with a cup of tea or coffee.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat gently before serving.
