Ingredients
- 1 package crescent roll dough
- 0.5 cup apricot preserves
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles along the perforated lines.
Step 3
Place each triangle on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the apricot preserves with the ground cinnamon.
Step 5
Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the apricot mixture onto the wider end of each crescent dough triangle.
Step 6
Starting from the wide end, gently roll each triangle toward the pointed end to form a crescent shape, tucking in any filling that spills out.
Step 7
Melt the butter in a microwave or on the stove, then lightly brush the tops of the crescents with the melted butter.
Step 8
Bake the crescents in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 9
Remove the crescent rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack for about 5 minutes.
Step 10
Dust the warm crescent rolls with powdered sugar before serving.
