Easy Pumpkin Crumble by Our Best Bites

Last year around this time my Mom told me about this great food blog called "Our Best Bites".  It's a really great site and that's where she found this recipe for Easy Pumpkin Crumble.  I made it for a Church gathering and it went over so well that I made it for Thanksgiving!  In fact, I think we got away with just having this instead of pumpkin pie, I might be wrong though.

Anyway, I've never been a fan of pumpkin pie, but I love, love, love this stuff!  In fact, I have been wanting to make it for a while now, but am waiting till Thanksgiving because I fear I will just eat the whole thing by myself otherwise!  It's THAT good!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Mix together all the ingredients until well combined.  Drop by the spoonful or cookie scoopful onto a baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes.  They will no flatten like most cookies.  Remove from sheet and cook on cooling rack.  Enjoy!!!  :)

 2.  You have two options:  make individual pasties like the pic above or a larger one like the pics below.  Either way you decide to make them, spread out the crescent dough and spread some of the pumpkin mixture on it.  Then simply roll them up!  :)
 
 3.  Bake in a 350degree oven for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
