Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 rolls
Ingredients
- 1 can pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 package crescent roll dough
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, peanut butter, honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Whisk until smooth and well-incorporated.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into individual triangles on a clean work surface.
- Spread approximately 2 tablespoons of the pumpkin-peanut butter mixture evenly across each crescent roll triangle, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll each triangle from the wide end to the point, ensuring the filling is sealed inside.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg and create an egg wash by whisking until smooth.
- Brush the top of each rolled crescent with the egg wash, which will help create a golden, shiny exterior when baked.
- Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and puffy.
- Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Optional: Dust with additional cinnamon or drizzle with extra honey before serving.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure your ingredients are at room temperature for the smoothest filling and easiest rolling.
- Seal the Deal: When rolling your crescents, pinch the edges gently to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
- Egg Wash Magic: Don't skip the egg wash – it's the secret to that gorgeous golden-brown shine and crispy exterior.
- Measuring Hack: Use the back of a spoon to spread the filling evenly, leaving a small border to prevent overflow.
- Cooling is Crucial: Let the rolls rest for 5 minutes after baking to allow the filling to set and prevent burns.
- Flavor Boost: For an extra touch, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt or a drizzle of maple syrup before serving.
- Make-Ahead Tip: You can prepare the filling a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator to save time on baking day.Pro tip: These rolls are best served warm and can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes to restore their crispy texture!
