Flaky, buttery, and bursting with sweet peach filling, peach pie cruffins are the lovechild of a croissant and a muffin—perfect for when you crave something indulgent yet effortless. Imagine layers of tender pastry swirled with spiced peach pie filling, baked until golden, then drizzled with vanilla-kissed cream.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing just until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease a muffin tin. Roll the dough into a 12x8-inch rectangle on a floured surface.
Spread the peach pie filling evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Tightly roll the dough into a log, starting from the long side.
Slice the log into 6 equal pieces and place each spiral into the muffin tin. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and flaky.
While warm, drizzle with a mixture of heavy cream and vanilla extract for extra richness. Serve slightly warm.
For a gluten-free version, use almond or coconut flour mixed 1:1 with all-purpose. For a vegan version, substitute butter with coconut oil and heavy cream with coconut cream.
