Pumpkin Pie Crescents Recipe

4.9 from 94 reviews

These Pumpkin Pie Crescents are a delightful and easy-to-make fall treat combining flaky crescent roll dough with a spiced pumpkin filling. Topped with a sweet maple glaze, they bake up golden and warm for a perfect seasonal snack or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Crescent Rolls

  • 8 ounces refrigerated crescent rolls (1 can)

Filling

  • ½ cup canned pumpkin pie filling (or pumpkin pie mix)
  • 1 egg yolk
  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Glaze

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Mix Filling: In a small bowl, combine the canned pumpkin pie filling, egg yolk, and pumpkin pie spice until well blended to create the spiced pumpkin filling.
  3. Prepare Crescents: Unroll the refrigerated crescent rolls and lay them flat on a clean surface. Place about 1 slightly heaping tablespoon of the pumpkin mixture onto the wide end of each crescent.
  4. Roll Crescents: Starting at the large end, roll each crescent over the filling once, then gently pinch the sides to keep the filling contained as you continue rolling. Some filling may leak out, which is fine. Arrange the rolled crescents on the prepared pan.
  5. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crescents are lightly browned and cooked through.
  6. Make Glaze: While the crescents bake, mix the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk in a small bowl until smooth and drizzle-able. Transfer to a small zip-top bag for easy drizzling.
  7. Cool and Glaze: Allow the crescents to cool on the baking pan for about 10 minutes. Snip off a small corner of the zip-top bag and drizzle the glaze over each crescent. Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute homemade pumpkin pie filling for the canned version if preferred.
  • If you prefer a thicker glaze, reduce the milk slightly.
  • Serve these crescent rolls warm for the best taste, though they can be stored refrigerated and gently warmed before eating.
  • Feel free to sprinkle a little extra pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon on top of the glaze for added flavor.
