Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles along the perforated edges.
In a small bowl, combine the dried cranberries, chopped walnuts, brown sugar, melted butter, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to create the filling.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the cranberry-walnut filling at the wide end of each crescent triangle.
Starting with the wide end, roll each triangle up toward the pointed tip, encasing the filling as you go.
Place the filled crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and flaky.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet.
If desired, lightly dust the crescent rolls with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy!
