Raspberry Crescent Rolls Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 can Pre-made Crescent Rolls
- 1/2 cup Raspberry Jelly/Preserves
- Milk (for glaze)
- Confectioners sugar (for glaze)
Directions:
- Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the Crescent Roll packaging, typically to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the Crescent Rolls
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles on a clean surface.
- Add the Raspberry Filling
- Spread 1-2 teaspoons of raspberry jelly or preserves onto each triangle of dough. Be careful not to overfill, as the filling may ooze out while baking.
- Roll the Crescent Rolls
- Starting from the wide end of each triangle, roll the dough toward the pointed end, creating a crescent shape. Place the rolled crescents on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the Crescent Rolls
- Bake the crescent rolls in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
- Make the Glaze
- While the crescent rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together confectioners sugar and a small amount of milk in a bowl. Adjust the consistency by adding more sugar for a thicker glaze or more milk for a thinner drizzle.
- Glaze the Rolls
- Once the crescent rolls are golden brown and out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
Recipe Notes:
- Fruit Filling Variations: You can switch up the flavor by using your favorite fruit preserves or jams, such as strawberry, blueberry, or apricot.
- Serving Ideas: Serve these crescent rolls for breakfast, brunch, or as a quick dessert. They’re especially delicious when paired with a cup of coffee or tea.
