Rolled Crescent Rolls with Autumn Fruit, Plums and Apples

Step-by-step method

At a glance

These autumn crescent rolls start with a simple yeast dough that rises for an hour, then you'll roll it thin, cut it into triangles, and fill each one with fresh fruit or jam before rolling them into crescents. The filling possibilities are endless – plums, apples, jam with nuts, or cinnamon sugar – so you can mix and match to suit your mood. They bake up beautifully golden in about 20-25 minutes and are ready to dust with icing sugar and devour with your morning coffee.

Divide the dough

Turn out the risen dough onto a floured work surface. Divide into four pieces. Roll each piece into a thin rectangle, roughly 15 x 45 cm. Using a pastry wheel, cut each rectangle into triangles along its whole length.

Add the fruit

Place a piece of fruit on the wide end of each triangle – plum, apple or pear. In summer you could use raspberries or strawberries instead. You can also use jam instead of fresh fruit – spread it over the whole triangle, leaving about half a centimetre dry all the way round the edge.

Tip

If you'd like the rolls extra generously filled, mix jam or plum butter with chopped nuts, spread this over the dough, then top with fresh fruit as well.

About this recipe

I'm completely in love with these! I never seem to have much time for baking, and honestly, us grown-ups are already round enough as it is. Whenever I do bake something, we can't resist and end up devouring it with our coffee. But these autumn crescent rolls are the exception – they're unbelievably good. I recommend combining fruit with jam mixed with chopped nuts in each roll. Or plum jam. Or a sprinkle of poppy seeds. Oh my…
