They’re golden, gooey, and loaded with juicy peach flavor—made easy with just a can of cinnamon rolls and pie filling.

Why I Love This Recipe
There’s beauty in simplicity, and these peach pies prove it. No mixing bowls, no fancy gadgets—just pop open two pantry staples and you’re halfway to heaven. The cinnamon rolls crisp into a flaky, buttery crust, while the spiced peaches turn warm and syrupy as they bake. Top it off with a drizzle of icing and boom: bakery-level dessert without the effort.
Ingredients
- 1 (12.4 oz) can cinnamon roll dough with icing (8 count)
- 1 (21 oz) can peach pie filling
Swaps & Notes
- Filling Options: Not into peaches? Try apple, cherry, or blueberry pie filling.
- From Scratch Alternative: Use homemade cinnamon roll dough or pie crust if you’re feeling ambitious.
- Add Texture: Sprinkle chopped pecans or oats on top before baking for crunch.
- Extra Spice: Dust with cinnamon sugar before baking to enhance the cinnamon swirl.
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease 8 muffin tin holes. - Prep the Dough:
Open the cinnamon rolls and separate them. Flatten each one into a disk with your hands or a rolling pin. - Form the Crusts:
Press each flattened disk into the greased muffin tin to create pie crust shapes. - Add the Filling:
Spoon peach pie filling into each cup. If the peach slices are large, cut them into bite-size pieces for better fit. - Bake:
Pop the tin into the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, until the crusts are puffed and golden brown. - Cool and Drizzle:
Let the pies cool slightly in the pan, then drizzle with the included icing packet. - Serve and Enjoy:
Use a knife to gently loosen each mini pie from the tin and transfer to a plate. Enjoy warm or room temp!
Tips for Success
- Avoid Overfilling: Too much filling may bubble over—2–3 spoonfuls per pie is perfect.
- Flatten Evenly: Ensure each cinnamon roll is flattened evenly to bake uniformly.
- Non-Stick Alert: Greasing the muffin tin thoroughly ensures easy release after baking.
