Easy Pumpkin Pie Crescent Rolls

These soft crescents are stuffed with pumpkin pie filling and topped with a simple glaze. They’re like mini pumpkin pie roll ups and perfect for piling on a dessert tray!

If it’s fall, you can bet I am all about the pumpkin recipes and these pumpkin crescents are a super easy way to get your fix.

Ingredients for Pumpkin Pie Crescent Rolls

• Canned pumpkin puree – Be sure to use puree and not pumpkin pie filling!
• Sugar – For this recipe, I use brown sugar and granulated sugar to add sweetness to the filling.
• Pumpkin pie spice – Look for it in the spice aisle or make homemade pumpkin spice.
• Egg yolks – Just like in a regular pie filling, the yolk adds richness and flavor.
• Refrigerated crescent roll dough – I like Pillsbury crescents!
• Maple Glaze – All you do is combine powdered sugar, milk, and maple extract. You can also use vanilla extract, if you prefer.

How to Make Pumpkin Crescents

1. Mix the pumpkin, both kinds of sugar, pumpkin spice, and yolk in a bowl.
2. Spread the filling on each crescent roll and roll the dough up like a jelly roll.
3. Place the rolls on a prepared cookie sheet and bake them until golden brown on top.
4. Mix up the glaze and drizzle it over the pumpkin crescent rolls.

Can you make pumpkin crescents ahead?

You can make and bake these rolls a day ahead! Wait to add the glaze and store them plain in an airtight container.

The next day, warm them up in a low oven and add the glaze. They’ll taste like they’re freshly baked! Or, serve them at room temperature – they’re delicious that way, too.

How long do Pumpkin Pie Crescent Rolls keep?

Leftover pumpkin crescent rolls will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Or, freeze them for up to two months.
