Ingredients

Units Scale

Dough

  • 3 cans refrigerated crescent dough (8 ounces each)

Filling

  • 1 cup peach preserves (organic if possible)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Muffin Tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  2. Mix Filling: In a bowl, combine the peach preserves with the ground cinnamon, mixing thoroughly to blend the flavors evenly.
  3. Prepare Dough Rectangles: Roll out each can of crescent dough and press the seams together gently to form solid rectangles, ensuring the dough won’t separate when rolled.
  4. Spread Filling: Evenly spread the peach and cinnamon mixture over each dough rectangle, covering the surface completely for a consistent flavor in every bite.
  5. Roll and Twist: Roll each rectangle tightly into logs, then slice each log in half. Take each half and twist it into a spiral shape to create layers and texture.
  6. Arrange and Bake: Place each twisted dough piece into the prepared muffin tin, spacing them evenly. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the cruffins achieve a golden brown color and are cooked through.
  7. Make Glaze: While the cruffins bake, whisk together the powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream until smooth to form a sweet glaze.
  8. Glaze and Serve: Once the cruffins are warm and slightly cooled, drizzle the glaze over the tops. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use organic peach preserves for a more natural flavor.
  • Make sure to press seams flat in the dough to prevent filling leakage.
  • Let the cruffins cool slightly before glazing to avoid melting the glaze completely.
  • These can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat briefly before serving.
  • For added texture, sprinkle chopped nuts or cinnamon sugar over the glaze.
