Ingredients
Scale
Crust and Topping
- 1 (8 oz) can crescent roll dough
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk (adjust for desired consistency)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and press the seams together firmly to create one solid sheet of dough.
- Bake the Crust: Bake the dough for 8-10 minutes or until it turns a light golden color, forming the base for your cinnamon-sugar pizza.
- Apply Butter and Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Brush the baked crust evenly with the melted butter, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top for a flavorful coating.
- Bake Again: Return the crust to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the topping becomes bubbly and fragrant, enhancing the sweetness and aroma.
- Prepare the Glaze: While the pizza cools, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth, adjusting milk quantity to achieve the desired drizzle consistency.
- Cool and Glaze: Let the pizza cool for about 5 minutes to set slightly, then drizzle the vanilla glaze over the top generously. Slice and serve warm for the best taste experience.
Notes
- Press the crescent roll dough seams tightly to prevent gaps while baking.
- Adjust the milk in the glaze to make it thicker or thinner as preferred.
- Serve warm for the most enjoyable texture and flavor.
- This recipe can be doubled easily for larger gatherings.
- Optionally, add chopped nuts or raisins before the second bake for extra texture.
