This easy-to-make treat combines buttery layers and a crunchy cinnamon sugar crust, perfect for breakfast or a sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 can crescent dough (8 oz)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent dough and gently press the perforations to seal. Cut the dough into strips approximately 1 inch wide.
  2. Shape the Cruffins: Roll each dough strip tightly into a spiral shape resembling a muffin form. Place each rolled dough into a greased muffin tin cup to help maintain its shape during baking.
  3. Bake the Cruffins: Bake the shaped cruffins in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
  4. Butter and Coat: Immediately after baking, brush each cruffin generously with melted butter. In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Roll the buttered cruffins in the cinnamon sugar mixture until they are completely coated.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the cruffins to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Sealing the perforations of the crescent dough prevents the layers from separating during baking.
  • Using a muffin tin helps the cruffins hold their shape and bake evenly.
  • Adjust the cinnamon sugar quantity to taste for a sweeter or milder coating.
  • For extra indulgence, serve with a drizzle of glaze or a dusting of powdered sugar.
