There’s nothing quite like the smell of freshly baked pastries wafting through the kitchen, instantly transporting me back to sun-soaked summers spent at family picnics. My latest obsession? These Delicious Cherry Pie Bites! A heavenly fusion of flaky crescent rolls and bursting cherry filling, they offer all the comforting nostalgia of a classic cherry pie without the hassle.

Ingredients

Crescent Roll Dough (forms the flaky exterior)

Cherry Pie Filling (provides the sweet and tangy center)

Powdered Sugar (for the glaze)

Milk (for the glaze, to adjust consistency)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard muffin tin.
  2. Prepare the dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough, placing each triangle neatly into the muffin cups with the wide end at the bottom.
  3. Add the filling: Spoon approximately 3 to 4 heaping tablespoons of cherry pie filling into each dough cup.
  4. Seal the dough: Fold the corners of the dough gently over the filling, encasing it as much as possible.
  5. Bake: Bake in your preheated oven for 13-14 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Make the glaze: Whisk powdered sugar and milk together to create the glaze.
  7. Cool and glaze: Cool the cherry bites slightly before drizzling the glaze over them. Serve right away.

Notes

Fruit Swap: Substitute cherry filling with blueberry, apple, or peach.

Cinnamon Spice: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to the filling for a cozy twist.

Chocolate Delight: Toss in chocolate chips along with the cherry filling.

Nutty Crunch: Mix in chopped pecans or walnuts with your filling.

Dairy-Free Option: Use plant-based milk and dairy-free dough.

Gluten-Free Alternative: Use gluten-free crescent roll dough.

Zesty Lemon: Add lemon zest in the filling for a refreshing zing.

Heat It Up: Add cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
