Aunt Lori swore this little treat disappears before dinner even starts, and somehow she was always right.

 

If you love the comforting taste of a homemade peach pie but don't always want to fuss with a full-size pie, these Peach Pie Bites are the perfect shortcut.

Each little bite combines tender pastry, juicy peaches, warm cinnamon, and a touch of sweetness in a convenient handheld dessert. They're quick enough for a weeknight treat but pretty enough to bring along to a brunch, picnic, family gathering, or holiday dessert table.

The best part is that you get all those familiar peach-pie flavors without having to roll out and crimp an entire pie crust.

Ingredients You'll Need

For the Peach Pie Bites

• 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 2 medium peaches, peeled and finely diced
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, optional
• 1 tablespoon butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• Pinch of salt

Optional Glaze

• ½ cup powdered sugar

Whisk until smooth and drizzle over the cooled bites.

Fresh, Frozen, or Canned Peaches?

You have options here.

Fresh peaches are wonderful when they're ripe and in season. Choose peaches that are fragrant and slightly soft when gently pressed.

Frozen peaches can also work. Thaw and drain them well before chopping so excess moisture doesn't make the pastry soggy.

Canned peaches are convenient year-round. Drain them thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels before using.

The important thing is to avoid adding too much liquid to the filling.
