Recipe: Easy Apricot Crescents
- Preparation Time: 8 minutes
- Cooking Time: 10 minutes
- Total Time: 18 minutes
- Servings: 8
- Calories per Serving: 152.5
Ingredients:
- 1 can refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1/4 cup apricot jam
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- Powdered sugar for sprinkling
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Prepare a baking sheet by lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
-
-
Prepare the Crescents: Carefully separate the crescent rolls into 8 individual pieces, ensuring they are evenly spaced on your work surface.
-
Add the Filling: Take each crescent roll and spread an equal amount of apricot jam, shredded coconut, and chopped pecans onto the surface. The combination of fruity sweetness from the jam, nutty crunch from the pecans, and tropical flavor from the coconut creates a delightful filling for these crescents.
-
Roll Up the Crescents: Once the fillings are evenly distributed, gently roll up each crescent, starting from the wider end and tucking in the edges as you go. Place the rolled crescents seam side down onto the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake to Perfection: Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake the crescents for approximately 10 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
-
Final Touch: As soon as the crescents are done baking and still warm from the oven, sprinkle them generously with powdered sugar. This adds a touch of sweetness and a beautiful finish to the crescents.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled slightly, transfer the Easy Apricot Crescents to a serving platter or enjoy them warm straight from the baking sheet. They’re perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet treat any time of the day!
