Pecan Pie Crescents are a delightful twist on traditional pecan pie, featuring a sweet pecan filling wrapped in flaky crescent roll dough.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped pecans, brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until well combined.
  3. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.
  4. Place a tablespoon of the pecan mixture at the wide end of each triangle.
  5. Roll the dough from the wide end to the point, enclosing the filling.
  6. Place the rolled crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Allow the crescents to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, try adding a teaspoon of cinnamon to the pecan filling.
  • You can substitute walnuts for pecans if desired.
  • For a chocolate twist, sprinkle mini chocolate chips into the filling before rolling the crescents.
