how to make peach dumplings with crescent rolls
You’ll find the exact amounts and printable steps in the recipe card below. Here’s what each step looks like, plus the little things that make it work.
1. Preheat and slice the peaches. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut each peach into 8 equal wedges and remove the pit. A peach slicer makes this quick, and you can leave the peels on or take them off.
2. Roll up the dumplings. Open the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Place 2 peach wedges at the wide end of each triangle and roll them up toward the point.
3. Seal and arrange. Pinch the dough to seal and set the dumplings in a standard-size baking dish.
4. Make the brown sugar butter. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
5. Pour and bake. Pour the butter mixture over the dumplings and bake until golden brown, 35–40 minutes. The sauce bubbles up and turns gooey on the bottom, like a peach cobbler.
6. Cool and serve. Let the peach dumplings cool for about 5 minutes, then serve warm with vanilla ice cream, spooning the extra sauce from the pan over the top.
can I use canned peaches?
Yes. If you don’t have fresh peaches, jarred or canned peach slices work too. Just drain them well first. With fresh peaches, you can leave the peels on or take them off; if you leave them on, they soften as the dumplings bake.
how do you store leftover peach dumplings?
Let leftovers cool, cover the dish and refrigerate within 2 hours. Enjoy them within 3–4 days, and rewarm them in the microwave or oven before serving.
We hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do. It’s definitely one of those recipes worth saving. There’s nothing better than having what looks and tastes like a gourmet dessert on the table, but one that saves you time behind the scenes.
