10 Minute Pumpkin Croissants (4 Ingredients)
Description
The 10 Minute Pumpkin Croissants recipe starts with softened cream cheese blended smoothly with pumpkin puree and sugar to create a creamy filling with balanced sweetness. Using pre-made crescent dough triangles, the pumpkin mixture is spread evenly onto each piece and then rolled into classic croissant shapes. Optionally, an egg wash can be brushed on top for a glossy finish, and a sprinkle of sugar adds extra crunch and sweetness.
Baking at 375°F for approximately 15 minutes yields croissants that are golden brown with a flaky, buttery crust encasing a soft, spiced pumpkin and cream cheese filling. This shortcut method allows for a quick preparation time with a satisfying contrast between the crisp exterior and creamy interior.
These pastries are well suited for breakfast, brunch, or dessert and offer a seasonal pumpkin flavor without complex steps.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 12 oz pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 oz. crescent dough brand Pillsbury
- 1 egg optional for egg wash
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients. Soften the cream cheese at room temperature.
- Combine cream cheese with 1/4 cup of sugar and the pumpkin puree. Stir the mixture until it's creamy and smooth.
- Remove the Pillsbury Crescent Dough from the packaging. Spread a generous amount of the pumpkin mixture over each dough triangle and roll it up. Repeat until you have no pumpkin mixture left.
- Place each croissant on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Optionally brush with egg wash. Sprinkle the tops with sugar.
- Bake at 375°F for about 15 minutes, or until the croissants turn golden brown.
