Cinnamon Sugar Pizza made with Crescent Rolls

Ingredients 

• 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• Optional: Chopped pecans, mini chocolate chips, or fresh fruit for added flavor

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Press the seams together gently to form one large rectangle, ensuring there are no gaps where filling could leak through.

Pro Tip: If you want a round pizza, use a plate or bowl as a guide to trim the edges into a circle.

Step 3: Mix the Cinnamon-Sugar Topping

In a small mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well mixed. Set aside.

Step 4: Spread the Topping

Brush the entire surface of the crescent roll dough with melted butter (not listed in the original ingredients but essential for holding the cinnamon sugar). Then, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered dough, pressing lightly to ensure it sticks.

Optional: Sprinkle chopped pecans , mini chocolate chips , or other mix-ins for added texture and flavor.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12–15 minutes , or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. Keep an eye on it toward the end of baking to avoid burning.

Step 6: Cool and Slice

Remove the cinnamon sugar pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes before slicing. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut it into wedges or squares.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Serve the pizza warm or at room temperature. Optionally, drizzle with caramel sauce, honey, or powdered sugar for extra decadence. Pair it with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an unforgettable dessert experience!
