Ingredients
Scale
Dough and Filling
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1/2 cup canned peach pie filling or fresh peaches, chopped and lightly sweetened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface, pressing the seams to create one large rectangle.
- Add Butter and Spices: Evenly spread the melted butter across the dough. Sprinkle the brown sugar and ground cinnamon evenly over the buttered dough to incorporate the classic cinnamon roll flavor.
- Add Peach Filling: Distribute the canned peach pie filling or chopped fresh peaches evenly over the dough, ensuring full coverage for balanced sweetness.
- Roll Dough: Starting from one end, carefully roll the dough into a tight log, sealing the seams by pinching them together.
- Slice Rolls: Cut the rolled dough into 6 to 8 equal slices and arrange them in the prepared baking dish, spaced slightly apart.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the rolls turn golden brown and are cooked through.
- Make Glaze: While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until the glaze is smooth and creamy.
- Glaze Rolls: Remove rolls from the oven and allow to cool slightly before drizzling the glaze evenly over the warm cinnamon rolls.
- Serve: Serve the peach pie cinnamon rolls warm and enjoy their delightful combination of flavors and textures.
Notes
- For a fresher taste, use ripe fresh peaches instead of canned filling, lightly sweetened to your preference.
- You can adjust cinnamon and sugar amounts based on your sweetness and spice tolerance.
- Ensure not to overbake to keep rolls soft and tender.
- Glaze consistency can be adjusted by adding more milk or powdered sugar to your desired thickness.
