Ingredients
Scale
- 1 standard 8-ounce (227g) can crescent roll dough (preferably Pillsbury)
- 1 cup (245g) pumpkin puree (canned, not pumpkin pie filling)
- 4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
- ¼ cup (50g) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger (if using), and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangular pieces along the perforations.
- Spoon about 1 to 1 ½ tablespoons (15-22g) of the pumpkin filling onto the wider end of each triangle, being careful not to overfill.
- Roll up each crescent starting from the wide end toward the point, tucking the filling inside. Place the rolled bites seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of each bite with the beaten egg to achieve a golden, glossy finish.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent bites are puffed and golden brown, watching closely after 12 minutes to avoid over-browning.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Best enjoyed warm.
Notes
If the filling is too loose, chill it in the fridge for 10 minutes before filling the dough to prevent leaking. Avoid overfilling and roll tightly with the seam side down. The egg wash enhances golden color and texture. For dairy-free, use vegan cream cheese and crescent rolls. Gluten-free crescent dough can be used for gluten-free adaptation.
