Description
Bite-sized cherry pie bites made with crescent roll dough and sweet cherry filling, topped with a simple glaze. Quick, easy, and perfect for gatherings or a casual snack.
Ingredients
1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
2 tubes (8 oz each) crescent roll dough
1 cup confectioners’ (powdered) sugar
1–2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard muffin tin.
- Unroll crescent roll dough and press each triangle into a muffin cup, with the wider end on the bottom to form a nest.
- Spoon about 3 to 4 heaping tablespoons of cherry pie filling into each dough-lined cup.
- Fold the dough corners gently over the filling to help hold it in place.
- Bake for 13–14 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
- While baking, whisk together powdered sugar and milk to create a smooth glaze, adjusting milk for desired consistency.
- Once baked, cool for a few minutes, then drizzle glaze over the top. Serve warm for best flavor.
Notes
Do not overfill the dough to prevent bubbling over during baking.
Variations include using other pie fillings like blueberry or apple, adding cream cheese, or using flavored glaze.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Reheat in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5–7 minutes or microwave for 15 seconds.
Can be frozen after baking; reheat and glaze before serving.
