Ingredients

→ Crescents:

1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls

1/2 cup canned pumpkin purée

2 tablespoons packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Maple Glaze:

1/2 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

1 to 2 teaspoons milk, for consistency

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

In a small bowl, mix pumpkin purée, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Unroll crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles.

Place a generous teaspoon of pumpkin mixture on the wide end of each triangle. Roll up the dough from the wide end to the point to form crescent shapes.

Place crescents on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown. Let cool slightly.

In another small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk until smooth and pourable.

Drizzle glaze over warm crescents and serve fresh.

Notes

Let crescents cool for 5–10 minutes before glazing to prevent the icing from melting too quickly.

Great served warm, but also tasty at room temperature.

Optional: Add a sprinkle of chopped pecans or a dash of cinnamon on top of the glaze.
