Blueberry Crescent Roll Muffins are a delicious and easy muffin recipe with blueberries, cream cheese, refrigerated crescent roll dough, and sweet glaze. Making these delicious rolls in muffin form takes less than 30 minutes! The best part is you can use fresh or frozen blueberries so you can make these all year round.

Blueberry Crescent Roll Muffins on a table with couple of muffins behind and garnished with fresh blueberries.

However, you can have these delicious blueberry roll muffins as a dessert, but they are totally acceptable as breakfast, too. These are my new favorite comfort food.

During the fall baking season, I shared similar recipes with apples and pumpkin pie filling. Make sure to check my Apple Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes and Pumpkin Roll Muffins, too.

How to Make Blueberry Crescent Roll Muffins?

Blueberry Crescent Rolls Muffins (steps)

I’m totally obsessed with recipes that start with refrigerated crescent roll dough. The possibilities are endless. Premade dough always saves time in the kitchen. And all of these recipes are equally good for dessert but for breakfast, too.

As I said, making these delicious rolls in muffin form takes less than 30 minutes!

You can use fresh blueberries, but frozen works just fine, too. If using frozen blueberries do not thaw them before using.

To make the cream cheese mixture, simply mix cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract. Add one egg yolk, then mix well to combine.

Brush standard cupcake pan with melted butter generously and set aside.

Next, unroll the dough on a sheet of parchment paper. If using crescent roll dough, not crescent dough seamless sheet, pinch to seal the perforation. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough. Scatter the blueberries over the filling.

Starting from the wider side, roll the dough into a log. Slice the log into 8 pieces.

The log is soft, so you can slice it with a serrated knife, but to keep the round shape of the dough I suggest you use a string. Take about an 8″ piece of string, lay it under the log and wrap it around the dough, pulling it tight until it cuts through the dough making a perfect cut roll.

Arrange rolls in a buttered pan, then brush each roll with melted butter on top. You can add a few blueberries on top of each muffin.

Bake 18 to 20 minutes in preheated oven at 375 F. If using frozen blueberries it can take a few more minutes to bake.

When the rolls are slightly cooled, remove them from the pan and drizzle with the glaze.

Description

Blueberry Crescent Roll Muffins are a delicious and easy muffin recipe with blueberries, cream cheese, refrigerated crescent roll dough, and sweet glaze.


Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter-melted
  • 8 oz. refrigerated crescent seamless sheet
  • 4 oz. cream cheese-softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 cup blueberries (plus more for topping)

For the Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk (or more if needed)

 


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Brush cupcake pan with melted butter generously and set aside. You’ll have 8 rolls.
  2. On a sheet of parchment paper unroll the crescent dough sheet. If using crescent rolls, seal the perforation to make a large rectangle.
  3. Mix softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla, then mix in egg yolk. Spread the mixture over the dough.
  4. Scatter about 1/2 cup blueberries over the cream cheese.
  5. Starting from the wider side, roll the dough into a log. Slice the log into 8 pieces. The log is soft, so you can slice it with a serrated knife, but to keep the round shape of the dough I suggest you use a string. Take about an 8″ piece of string, lay it under the log and wrap it around the dough, pulling it tight until it cuts through the dough making a perfect cut roll.
  6. Arrange rolls in a buttered pan, then brush each roll with melted butter on top. You can add a few blueberries on top of each muffin.
  7. Bake 18 to 20 minutes in preheated oven at 375 F. If using frozen blueberries it can take a few more minutes to bake.
  8. Coo 5-10 minutes in the pan then gently remove from the pan.
  9. To make the glaze stir milk and powdered sugar. If it is too thick add more milk, if it’s too thin add more powdered sugar. Spoon over the muffins.

I made these last night with the kids and added a little lemon zest, but forgot the sugar, so we sprinkled some raw sugar on top. It worked out because they weren’t so sweet as to be dessert material, so I could serve them with dinner and say they had the meal’s fruit/carb/dairy. Wins all around. Kids loved then

I love this blueberry crescent rolls muffin recipe. It’s so moist and it taste delicious. I’ll make again for breakfast and for a midnight snack.

Light and airy….these muffins make it look like you spent way more effort on them! Next time I’ll had a hint of lemon juice and zest to the glaze for a real bump in flavor.

Ok we just took them out of the oven and they smell phenomenal! Saw them on another person’s wall and called my husband to pick up crescent rolls immediately! My only question is should they seem a little gooey in the middle? I am afraid to let them get too dark on the outside. I did use frozen blueberries. Hoping the 10 min cool time will correct this?

Any other filling you could use instead of cream cheese? Not a fan but like to try something different

Can you substitute blueberry yogurt for the cream cheese?
