Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients:
- 1 can (12.4 ounces / 351 grams) cinnamon roll dough with icing (8 count)
- 1 can (21 ounces / 595 grams) peach pie filling
Preparation Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
Topping Ingredients:
- 1 container icing (from cinnamon roll package)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and apply a thin layer of grease to 8 muffin tin cavities to prevent sticking.
- Gently separate the cinnamon rolls and use your fingers to flatten each one into a thin, uniform disk shape.
- Carefully press each flattened disk into the greased muffin cups, ensuring the dough covers the bottom and sides evenly to create miniature pie shells.
- Distribute the peach pie filling among the prepared crusts, using a knife to slice any oversized peach chunks into smaller, more manageable pieces.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, watching for a golden-brown crust that indicates the dough is fully cooked.
- Remove from the oven and allow the mini pies to cool for a few minutes, then drizzle the included icing from the cinnamon roll package over the top of each pie.
- Gently extract the mini peach pies from the muffin tin and transfer to a serving plate, ready to be enjoyed warm.
Notes
- Crust Hack Use refrigerated cinnamon rolls for a quick, foolproof pie crust that saves time and delivers consistent results.
- Texture Tip Flatten rolls gently to avoid tearing, ensuring an even layer that bakes uniformly and prevents filling leakage.
- Portion Control Cut peach pieces smaller to distribute fruit evenly, creating balanced bites and preventing large fruit chunks.
- Dietary Swap Replace cinnamon roll crust with gluten-free rolls or make homemade pie dough for those with dietary restrictions.
