Ingredients
  

For the Cherry Pie Bites
  • 1 can crescent roll dough This is the star of the show and makes everything so easy!
  • 1 cup cherry pie filling The sweet, juicy goodness that you can't resist.
  • 1 large egg For that shiny, golden finish.
  • 1 tbsp sugar A sprinkle on top adds a delightful sweetness.
Optional
  • to taste powdered sugar for dusting - Because who doesn't love a little extra sweetness?

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Small Bowl

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures your bites bake perfectly!
  2. Step 2: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. It’s like a little puzzle!
  3. Step 3: Place a tablespoon of cherry pie filling at the wide end of each triangle. Don’t be shy; they deserve a good scoop!
  4. Step 4: Roll the dough from the wide end to the point, enclosing the filling completely. Think of it as tucking in a cozy blanket.
  5. Step 5: Pinch the ends to seal them tightly and place the bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This keeps them from sticking.
  6. Step 6: In a small bowl, beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the crescent rolls. This step makes them golden and beautiful!
  7. Step 7: Sprinkle sugar on top of each bite for added sweetness. It’s like a little crown of sweetness!
  8. Step 8: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. The aroma will fill your kitchen!
  9. Step 9: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar before serving for that extra touch.

Notes

These delicious bites are best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers (which is rare!), store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep them longer, you can refrigerate them for up to a week. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to enjoy that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste again!
