Ingredients
- 2 can Pillsbury crescent rolls
Blueberry Filling
- 12 ounce blueberries
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Lemon Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Blueberry Filling
- In a saucepan over medium heat, add blueberries, sugar, brown sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stir and bring to a boil until the blueberries burst and sauce thickens. Let cool.
- On a lightly floured surface, lay out crescent dough, one can at a time, and pinch the perforated lines together.
- Roll dough so edges are even.
- Carefully slice into 1-inch strips lengthwise and then cut each strip in half. (Should have 14 pieces of dough from each can of crescent rolls)
- Add some blueberry mixture down the center of one strip.
- Place another strip on top of the blueberry mixture.
- Gently twist the two strips together and lay on the prepared baking sheet.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool.
Lemon Glaze
- Mix all the glaze ingredients together and spoon glaze over the cooled twists. Enjoy!
Notes
Tips
- Cook the filling over medium heat. Don't rush it with higher heat; you might burn it.
- Lightly flour your working surface to prevent sticking.
- Fully cool your twists before adding the glaze to ensure it stays in place.
