Peach Dumplings

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 

Slices of fresh peaches being wrapped with croissant dough

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!

Notes

Before storing, allow the dumplings to completely cool. You should be able to hover your hand over the top of the dish and not feel any radiant heat. Wrap the top of the dish (or place leftovers in an airtight container) and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 
To reheat Peach Dumplings in the oven: preheat the oven to 350 degrees, remove the dumplings from the fridge, and place the desired amount in an oven-safe dish. Heat the dumplings for 10-15 minutes or until warmed all the way through. If reheating the entire dish, heat for 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
To reheat Peach Dumplings in the microwave: place the desired portion on a microwave-safe plate, then heat in 30 second intervals until nice and hot. Watch out! It’s gonna be HOT.

  1. 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.

    1. So glad you liked them!! My oven may run a little hotter than yours. Glad you got them cooked!
