Provided by á-25138

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tubes Pillsbury refrigerated crescent rolls.
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 to 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice, to taste
3 to 4 tablespoons sugar (granulated or powdered; adjust to taste if you want the filling sweeter)

Steps:

  • Roll each crescent roll out and cut lengthwise in 2. Beat the above ingredients together until fluffy and creamy and spread about one teaspoon of filling over each triangle of dough. Mix together 4 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice and roll each pumpkin pie croissant in it. Bake at 375°F for about 13-15 minutes - you want them to be lightly browned and the dough baked through. I use baking stones, so baking times may vary. These are sweet but not so-much-so - sublime little bites of pumpkin pie heaven that are easy and portable and the perfect addition to any fall celebration. Refrigerate leftover filling ... it is delicious on bagels or toast and it makes a great dip for cinnamon graham crackers, green apples and ginger snaps!

Tips:

  • For a flaky crust, use cold butter and work it into the flour quickly. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can make it tough.
  • If you don't have time to make the pumpkin pie filling from scratch, you can use a store-bought filling. Just be sure to choose one that is not too thick or sweet.
  • To prevent the croissants from drying out, brush them with an egg wash before baking. This will also help them to brown nicely.
  • Serve the croissants warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

Conclusion:

These mini pumpkin pie croissants are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas breakfast or brunch. They are also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. With their flaky crust and creamy pumpkin filling, these croissants are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
