How to Make Cherry Streusel Crescent Pies 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Spray a regular muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray
  2. Remove the dough from the tube, unroll.
  3. There are 8 crescent triangles. Make four rectangles of dough by keeping two of the triangles in tact.
  4. Push and press the rectangle of dough into a greased muffin tin so that they form a small pie.
  5. Dish out a spoonful of the cherry filling into each crescent pie. (Don’t overflow, ½ the can will be left over after you fill the pies, so you can make an extra 4 if you want?)
  6. In a small bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, water and softened butter. Use a fork to mix up ingredients until crumbly.
  7. Sprinkle streusel on top of the cherry pies until desired effect, you may have some leftover depending on how much you use.
  8. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 12-13 minutes until the edges start to turn golden brown.  Best served warm!

Storing 

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.

Other Options to Serve

Of course, when I think of cherry pie, ‘a la mode’ is always the favorite option.  So I went to the next level and whipped up some homemade Cinnamon Cheesecake Ice Cream, but of course No Churn Vanilla Bean Ice Cream is definitely another great option, if you’re an a la pie mode type of gal or guy! 

You can also drizzle a simple vanilla glaze on top as well!  

Other fruit filling flavors?  Not a cherry fan?  Choose your own flavor of pie filling. There’s always blueberry, apple, raspberry or strawberry pie fillings you can replace!
