Ingredients

Scale

Crescent Roll Dough

  • 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough

Topping

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into a greased 9-inch round baking pan or pizza pan, making sure to seal the perforations so the dough forms one solid layer.
  2. Bake the Dough: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the dough for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Topping: While the dough is baking, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Melt the butter in another bowl or microwave-safe container.
  4. Add the Topping: As soon as the crescent roll base is hot from the oven, brush the melted butter evenly over the surface. Then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the buttered dough to ensure an even sweet coating.
  5. Serve: Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing it into wedges. Serve warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can add a drizzle of cream cheese frosting for extra richness.
  • Use light or salted butter according to preference, but adjust salt in the recipe accordingly.
  • This dessert is best served fresh but can be warmed up in the oven or microwave if enjoyed later.
  • For a twist, add chopped nuts or raisins on top before baking.
