Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 rolls refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 0.5 cup fruit jelly or jam (any flavor)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles.
Spread approximately 1 teaspoon of your preferred fruit jelly or jam onto the wide end of each triangle. Be careful not to overfill to prevent leaking while baking.
Starting at the wide end, roll each crescent dough triangle tightly toward the pointed end to form crescent shapes.
Place the rolled crescents seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Brush the tops of the crescent rolls with melted butter using a pastry brush.
In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the crescent rolls.
Bake the crescent rolls in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the rolls cool slightly on a wire rack for about 5 minutes.
For an optional finishing touch, lightly dust the tops of the crescent rolls with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your freshly baked Crescent Jelly Rolls with a cup of coffee or tea!
