These Peach Pie Cruffins are a delightful hybrid between a croissant and muffin, featuring flaky, buttery crescent dough filled with a sweet and cinnamon-spiced peach preserves mixture. Topped with a luscious powdered sugar glaze, they offer a perfect balance of fruity sweetness and flaky texture ideal for breakfast or a special treat.

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 and prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners to prevent sticking and to make removal easy.
  2. Mix filling: In a small bowl, combine the peach preserves with the ground cinnamon, stirring thoroughly to create a spiced fruit filling that’s evenly flavored.
  3. Prepare dough: Unroll the crescent dough and press together the seams to form solid rectangles. This ensures the dough won’t come apart during baking.
  4. Spread filling: Evenly spread the peach and cinnamon mixture across each dough rectangle, making sure to cover the entire surface for uniform flavor.
  5. Shape cruffins: Roll each rectangle of dough into a log shape. Slice each log in half lengthwise, then twist each half into a spiral shape to create layers and texture.
  6. Bake: Place each twisted spiral into the muffin tin liners and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the cruffins are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Add glaze: While the cruffins are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar and heavy cream to create a smooth glaze. Once the cruffins are warm from the oven, drizzle the glaze over the top for a sweet finishing touch.

Notes

  • Make sure to press the crescent dough seams well to prevent leaking during baking.
  • You can substitute peach preserves with other fruit jams like apricot or strawberry if desired.
  • For a dairy-free glaze, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream.
  • Serve the cruffins warm for the best flavor and texture experience.
  • Store leftover cruffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days; reheat gently before serving.
