Y’all my Peach Dumplings are legit a viral sensation. I think it’s because its legit like peach cobbler in an individual package. I wrap peaches in store-bought crescent dough then I bake them in a spiced whiskey butter sauce. The whole prep takes minutes but the pay off is too bomb to resist.

Peach Dumplings Ingredient Notes
- Crescent Roll Dough- I use the Pillsbury brand. Keep in the fridge until you need it.
- Peaches- If fresh peaches aren’t available (or in season), frozen or canned peaches will work just fine boos. Frozen peaches should be defrosted. Canned peaches will need to be fully drained.
- Butter- Unsalted and salted is fine.
- Whiskey- You can also use rum or use peach nectar if you don’t want it.
- Spices- Cinnamon and nutmeg. Or grab apple pie spice.
- Soda- Lemon-lime soda is what I use or you can use carbonated soda.
How to Make Peach Dumplings
Step 1: Unroll all the crescent dough, lay them out on your parchment-paper lined pans, and create a little procession line. Lay the peach slice in the center of the dough, then roll and tuck the large side of the dough over and seal the pointed end onto the dumpling. Place each dumpling in the pan after you finish.
Step 2: In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients except for the soda. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and dark amber brown in color.

Step 3: Carefully (and evenly) pour the mixture on top of the dumplings. Then top with the soda.
Step 4: Bake until the dumplings are plump, fragrant, and golden brown. The tops of the dumplings should be covered in caramelized sugar. Allow them to cool for about 10 minutes, scoop some vanilla ice cream (or whipped cream) on top, and serve!
TIP: Most peach skin is soft enough to easily remove with a peeler or even the side of a spoon. But if the skin is being a little stubborn, you can use the blanching technique. Put peaches in boiling water for a few seconds, then quickly remove and plunge into ice water. The skin should come off almost by itself!

Can I use canned peaches and regular puff pastry?
I think both should be ok even though I haven’t tried with puff pastry before.
Can I use peach flavored whiskey or rum?
Yes you can but I would maybe balance it with something else so it won’t be too overwhelming.
These are FABULOUS! My husband almost never gives a “5′ rating to anything, but he sure gave these a “5′! He moaned while he was eating them. When the batch was finished (a few days later), he was already begging me to make more. He came home with a bag of peaches a few days later. I subbed Diet Sprite, and it worked well. I was also a bit heavy on the cinnamon. Thanks for the recipe!
So glad you enjoyed these. Aren’t they fab?
I have to say I wasn’t sure how it would come out. This is the closest I’ve been to making peach cobbler and it was fantastic. Had just gotten peaches from The Peach Truck so I had to find recipes to use all these peaches! This one did not disappoint. My husband loved them. I let my friend try some and I gave her some raw peaches and she liked the dumplings so much I sent her the recipe and she made some. Paired it with some peach ice cream I made with the other peaches and I licked the bowl clean they were so good together. Thank you for this recipe!
Ooo yum! Love the idea of serving with peach ice cream! Sounds yummy! Next time you should try my peach cobbler recipe! You got this!
Made this for my family and they all said it looked and tasted like a high end dessert! I used half of bag of frozen peaches. The other half I blended with some of the whiskey and added to the sauce. I actually cooked the sauce on the stovetop for a few minutes then poured it over the rolls, saving some to add as a drizzle over the ice cream. Cooktime was perfect and they were EXCELLENT! Will be keeping this in our family’s rotation, thank you!!!
Fantastic, and I love the way you thickened the sauce. So glad you enjoyed this.
These are so good! Came out perfect. So many renditions can be made, between banana, pear, apple, mango and pineapple. Gonna have fun with this recipe!
Apple is my other favorite version!
Excellent! Had to cook mine a little longer because the bottom of the crescent rolls were still raw. But after cooking for another 10 minutes it was wonderful. Will definitely make again.
So glad you liked them!! My oven may run a little hotter than yours. Glad you got them cooked!
What can you substitute for whiskey!
You can just leave it out.
