- 1 pack of crescent roll dough (or any dough sheet of your choice)
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions: How to Make Peach Roll-Up Dessert
Making this delicious Peach Roll-Up Dessert is quick and easy, with only a few simple steps. Here’s how to do it:
1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling
Start by softening the cream cheese in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. In a medium-sized bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This mixture will create the rich, sweet base for your peach roll-ups.
2. Roll Out the Dough
Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface. If you’re using a dough sheet (instead of pre-cut crescent rolls), roll it out into a rectangular shape. Use a rolling pin to flatten it slightly, ensuring it’s large enough to fit the peach filling.
3. Spread the Cream Cheese Mixture
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly across the dough, leaving about an inch around the edges. Be generous with the filling, ensuring it covers most of the dough’s surface.
4. Add the Peaches
Spoon out some of the peach pie filling and spread it evenly on top of the cream cheese mixture. If you prefer to use fresh peaches, simply dice the peaches and scatter them across the cream cheese layer. You can also sprinkle a little cinnamon over the peaches for extra flavor if desired.
5. Roll Up the Dough
Once your peach and cream cheese layers are ready, carefully roll up the dough starting from one end to the other. Be gentle so that the filling doesn’t spill out. Pinch the edges to seal the roll, ensuring it stays intact.
6. Cut and Arrange
Once you have your roll-up, slice it into individual pieces about 1-2 inches wide, depending on your preference. Arrange the pieces in a lightly greased baking dish.
7. Add the Butter and Sugar
Drizzle the melted butter over the top of the rolls, ensuring they’re all coated. Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly on top for an added sweetness and slight crispiness. If you like cinnamon, you can sprinkle a bit more cinnamon on top for a warming touch.
8. Bake the Peach Roll-Ups
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the roll-ups are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
9. Serve and Enjoy!
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let the roll-ups cool for a few minutes. Serve them warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat. They also taste great on their own, or you can drizzle a bit of caramel sauce on top for added sweetness.
Variations on the Peach Roll-Up Dessert
While this recipe is already delicious, there are plenty of ways you can customize it to suit your taste. Here are a few variations to try:
Berry Peach Roll-Ups
Add a handful of fresh or frozen berries (like raspberries, blackberries, or blueberries) along with the peaches for an extra burst of flavor. The tartness of the berries pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the peaches.
Nutty Peach Roll-Ups
For a little crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts (such as pecans, almonds, or walnuts) on top of the cream cheese mixture before rolling it up. The nuts add texture and a lovely roasted flavor that complements the fruit.

Caramel Peach Roll-Ups
If you’re a fan of caramel, drizzle a little caramel sauce over the peaches before rolling the dough. This adds an irresistible caramel flavor that takes this dessert to the next level.
Vegan Peach Roll-Ups
For a dairy-free version, you can substitute the cream cheese with a plant-based cream cheese or coconut cream, and use a non-dairy butter substitute. The rest of the recipe remains the same!
Tips for Success
- Use Fresh or Canned Peaches: If fresh peaches are in season, go ahead and use them! If you’re using canned peaches, opt for one with minimal added sugar for a more natural taste.
- Let the Dough Rise: If you’re using refrigerated crescent rolls, make sure to give them enough time to rise while baking for that perfect golden, flaky texture.
- Add a Topping: For an extra special touch, top the baked roll-ups with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of frosting. You could also add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.
- Don’t Overstuff: Be careful not to overstuff your roll-ups, as they can become difficult to seal and might leak filling while baking. A little filling goes a long way!
