Ingredients
Dough and Butter
- 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
- 2 g unsalted butter, melted
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
- 50 g granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Vanilla Glaze
- 60 g powdered sugar
- 1–2 ml milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Unroll Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing the seams together carefully to form one large, even sheet of dough.
- Brush with Butter: Evenly coat the surface of the dough with the melted unsalted butter, ensuring full coverage to help create a crisp and flavorful crust.
- Add Topping: In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together, then sprinkle this cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered dough surface.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the dough turns a lovely golden brown color.
- Cool Slightly: Remove the baked cinnamon sugar pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet to set slightly.
- Make Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until you achieve a smooth and pourable glaze consistency.
- Drizzle Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the vanilla glaze generously over the warm cinnamon sugar pizza, then slice into portions and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Pressing the crescent roll dough seams together ensures a more uniform crust without gaps.
- Adjust the amount of milk in the glaze to reach your desired drizzle consistency.
- For a dairy-free version, use plant-based butter and milk substitutes.
- Serve warm for optimal flavor and texture.
