Main Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 oz)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent roll dough and press the seams together to form one uniform rectangle or circle, then place it on your prepared baking sheet.
- Mix Butter and Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the vanilla extract. In another bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well blended.
- Apply Toppings: Brush the butter and vanilla mixture evenly over the dough surface. Generously sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the buttered dough, ensuring full coverage.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the dough is golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Prepare Glaze: While the pizza bakes, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable.
- Finish and Serve: After baking, remove the pizza from the oven and optionally drizzle with the vanilla glaze. Let it cool slightly before slicing into 8 pieces. Serve warm for best flavor.
Notes
- For added texture and flavor, sprinkle mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts on top before baking.
- This dessert is ideal for brunch, snacking, or as a simple sweet treat after meals.
