Ingredients

For this delightful recipe, you’ll need:

  • 2 cups plums, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup sugar (adjust based on the sweetness of plums)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the sliced plums with sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside to let the flavors mingle for about 10 minutes.
  3. Open up the crescent roll dough and lay it flat on a baking sheet, following the perforated lines to separate into triangles.
  4. Brush each triangle with melted butter, then sprinkle a bit of brown sugar on top.
  5. Place a few slices of the seasoned plums at the wider end of each triangle. If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle some chopped pecans on top of the plums.
  6. Roll each triangle up tightly, starting from the wide end to the pointy end. Make sure they’re snug so all that delicious filling doesn’t escape!
  7. Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then brush the tops with any remaining melted butter and sprinkle a little brown sugar.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
  9. Once out of the oven, let them cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar for that perfect finish.

And voila! You have a plate full of scrumptious German Plum Rolls that’ll have your taste buds dancing. Enjoy them warm with a sprinkle of love!
