This week Janelle from Comfy in the Kitchen is whipping up something all our kids will love – and mamas too because it’s so quick and easy – Quick Crescent Pecan Rolls!
In a small bowl combine brown sugar, melted butter, and corn syrup.
Chop pecans and place in a bowl mixed with sugar and cinnamon.
Unroll crescent rolls like so
Pinch perforations together to seal and roll.
Sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon, and pecans. Roll up (this is super simple)
You will end up with a long cylinder ready to slice!
Place each pecan roll cut side down in an 8×8 pan. Bake at 375 for appx 15 mins until lightly golden.
When done, turn pecan rolls upside down and they will fall out of the pan with a caramel drizzle on top.

These sound wonderful – I’m going to give them a try this weekend!
those look yummy!!!!! wondering whether honey would work instead of corn syrup … trying to head towards natural sweeteners. maybe I should make 2 batches and compare 😀
Mmmmm…those look yummy!! I’m saving this and trying for our super healthy Christmas Breakfast. I always try to find the yummiest, sweetest, sticky, gewy breakfast I can find. And this looks like it fits all the requirements. Thanks for sharing with us!! 🙂
Blessings,

oh, my! a sister-friend and a cup of coffee to go along with these yummies sounds almost heavenly!!!! what an inspiration/reason to have that sister-friend stop over!!!!!! If you need a reason 😉
Sounds like a great Saturday morning treat! With some coffee…………yum!
What’s the difference in light or dark corn syrup? Duh! .lol
OHMan!! these look so yummy!! thanks for the recipe tho, sigh ;'( another addition to the hips:’D
Just to note: Pillsbury now makes crescent roll dough that comes in one big sheet for just this type of recipe. It’s great!
Thanks for that tip Laurie!
Yum! I will definitely try this.

Can’t wait to make these! They are perfect for autumn, my FAVORITE season!!!!
Hey! I saw you on the Unglued Webcast and found your blog. How precious and sweet it is to read your blog.
Thanks!! You gave me an idea– If I use my whole wheat, sugar free vegan scone recipe, I could either mix nuts in it or sprinkle on top with honey and mix cinnamon inside with the dough.
Oh my yum! those look so good! I will have to try those soon.
I made these this morning, and was so disappointed! I’m not sure what I did wrong. The taste was wonderful, but after I flipped the rolls out of the pan, the now-top was just goo. The dough did not seem to be baked, but it may have been all that butter they were sitting in. The brown sugar mixture just ran all over my counter. I used a regular 8 oz roll of crescent rolls. The recipe said 8 oz, but it also said Grands. Grands would be more than 8 oz. Which is it? I’m thinking I need a lot more roll, or way less topping.
I had same experience. Don’t need much butter in pan and need more rolls. Tasted great, appearance not the same. 🙂
I found another recipe almost identical, and it said to use TWO tubes of Crescent Rolls. This makes way more sense. I will try again.
Made them this Memorial Day morning as a special treat! They didn’t last long!! DELICIOUS and GOOEY!
