Ingredients:

• 1 Package of Refrigerated Crescent Roll Dough
• 1 Large Peach ((or 2 Small Peaches) cut into 8 wedges)
• 4 Strawberries (cut into 16 slices)
• 2 Tablespoons Butter (melted)
• 2 Tablespoons Sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1/2 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 to 2 Tablespoons Milk

Cooking Instructions:

Let’s get started on creating these irresistible Strawberry Peach Pie Bites!

First, we need to prepare our fruits. Wash your peach thoroughly. If you’re using a large peach, cut it into eight wedges. For smaller peaches, you can use two. You want bite-sized pieces that will cook through nicely within the dough. Next, wash your strawberries and hull them. Cut each strawberry into about four slices. The goal here is to have enough fruit pieces to distribute evenly among the pie bites. Don’t worry about perfection; rustic cuts are part of the charm!

Now, let’s get our crescent roll dough ready for action. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will make cleanup a breeze and prevent any potential sticking. Carefully unroll the package of refrigerated crescent roll dough. You’ll find it’s pre-scored into triangles. Gently separate the triangles. You can either use them as they are or, for slightly smaller bites, you can cut each triangle in half diagonally. I find cutting them in half makes for perfectly portioned individual treats.

Time to assemble these little fruity parcels. Place one or two peach wedges and a couple of strawberry slices onto the wider end of each crescent roll triangle. Don’t overfill them, as you need to be able to seal the dough around the fruit. You want enough filling to be delicious but not so much that it spills out during baking.

Next, we’ll create a simple, yet flavorful, cinnamon-sugar coating for our fruit. In a small bowl, mix together the 2 tablespoons of sugar and the 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. This mixture will add a lovely warmth and sweetness to the filling. Sprinkle a generous pinch of this cinnamon-sugar mixture over the fruit on each crescent roll triangle. This step is crucial for infusing that classic pie flavor into our bites.

Now for the wrapping! Fold the point of each crescent roll triangle over the fruit, then gently pinch the sides together to seal the filling inside. Make sure you create a good seal so none of that delicious fruit escapes during baking. You can gently roll them into a small ball or just tuck the sides in to create a neat little package. Place the assembled pie bites onto your prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.

Brush the tops of each pie bite with the melted butter. This butter will help them achieve that beautiful golden-brown color and add an extra layer of richness. Once all the bites are brushed with butter, place the baking sheet into your preheated oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed up and golden brown. Keep an eye on them as ovens can vary. You’re looking for a lovely, toasted hue.

While the pie bites are baking, let’s prepare the simple glaze. In another small bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup of powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of milk. Gradually add more milk, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach a smooth, drizzly consistency. You want it thin enough to drizzle but not so thin that it runs off immediately. If it’s too thick, add a tiny bit more milk; if it’s too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.

Once the Strawberry Peach Pie Bites are out of the oven and have cooled slightly on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, transfer them to a wire rack to cool further. They should still be warm enough to melt the glaze beautifully. Drizzle the prepared powdered sugar glaze over the warm pie bites. The warmth will help the glaze set a little, creating a delightful sweet topping.

Serve these warm Strawberry Peach Pie Bites immediately, or let them cool completely if you prefer. They are delightful on their own, or you can serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat. Enjoy your delicious homemade pie bites!

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I use frozen fruit for these Strawberry Peach Pie Bites?

Yes, you can! If using frozen strawberries and peaches, make sure to thaw them completely and drain off any excess liquid before incorporating them into the filling. This will help prevent a soggy crust.

How should I store leftover pie bites?

Store any leftover Strawberry Peach Pie Bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days, or in the refrigerator for up to four days. Gently reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven for the best texture.

Can I make the crust ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare the pie dough up to two days in advance and store it, wrapped tightly, in the refrigerator. You can also freeze the dough for longer storage.
