Ingredients
For the Cruffins:
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 cup fresh peaches, peeled and diced (or frozen peaches, thawed and drained)
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 Tbsp cornstarch
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup butter, melted
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1 egg (for egg wash)
Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
Preheat Oven & Prepare Tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin or line with cupcake liners.
Prepare Peach Filling: In a medium bowl, combine diced peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir until peaches are well-coated.
Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
Assemble Cruffins: Place one dough triangle in each muffin cup, allowing the dough edges to hang over the sides. Spoon peach filling into the center of each dough triangle.
Form Layers: Gently fold the dough over the peach filling to create a loose, layered effect.
Brush & Top: Brush melted butter over the tops of the cruffins and sprinkle with brown sugar.
Egg Wash: Crack the egg into a small bowl, whisk it, and lightly brush the egg wash over the dough for a golden finish.
Bake: Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Cool & Serve: Let the cruffins cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
Other Fruits: Use apples, berries, or nectarines in place of peaches. Adjust sugar and cornstarch for different fruits.
Spices: Experiment with nutmeg or allspice in the filling for a unique flavor.
Glaze: Drizzle a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk over cooled cruffins for extra sweetness.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2–3 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
