Description
Sweet and nutty Pecan Pie Crescent Rolls that combine the flavors of pecan pie with crescent roll fun. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (8-count) can crescent roll dough
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp corn syrup or maple syrup
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- Optional glaze: ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp milk
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix pecans, brown sugar, syrup, melted butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until coated.
- Unroll crescent dough triangles on the baking sheet. Spoon 1 tablespoon of filling onto the wide end of each triangle. Roll tightly toward the point and tuck in edges slightly to prevent leaking.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until rolls are puffed and golden brown. Cool slightly on a wire rack.
- Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth, and drizzle over warm crescent rolls before serving.
Notes
For a different taste, try using walnuts instead of pecans. You can also add spices like nutmeg for a warm flavor.
