Description

This Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza is a delightful sweet treat that combines flaky crescent roll dough with a buttery cinnamon-sugar topping, baked to golden perfection and finished with a creamy vanilla glaze. Perfect for breakfast, dessert, or any time you crave a warm, sweet snack.


Ingredients

Scale

Crumb Topping

  • 1/4 cup cold butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • Dash of salt
  • 1/2 cup flour

Dough

  • 1 can Pillsbury Crescent Rolls (8 count)

Vanilla Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp softened butter
  • 1-1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1-1/2 tbsp milk


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the crescent roll dough to a golden finish.
  2. Make Crumb Topping: In a mixing bowl, cut the cold butter into the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and flour until the mixture becomes crumbly, creating the sweet topping.
  3. Prepare Dough: Separate the crescent roll dough into 8 individual triangles and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
  4. Top with Crumbs: Evenly sprinkle the crumb mixture over each crescent roll triangle, covering the dough well.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes, or until the dough turns golden brown and the crumb topping is bubbly and fragrant.
  6. Prepare Glaze: In a small bowl, blend together the powdered sugar, softened butter, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more powdered sugar if the glaze is too thin.
  7. Serve: Drizzle or spread the vanilla glaze over the warm cinnamon-sugar pizzas before serving for an extra sweet finish.

Notes

  • Use cold butter for the crumb topping to achieve the best crumbly texture.
  • For larger servings, double the recipe accordingly.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute butter and milk with plant-based alternatives.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
