Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Cut peaches into 16 crescent-shaped slices.

Unroll crescent roll dough on a flat work surface and separate into 16 triangles. Place a peach slice at the base of each triangle and roll up to enclose in the dough. Arrange turnovers in a baking pan.
