Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 tube Crescent Roll Dough (Puff pastry can also be used with adjusted baking time.)
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (Use at room temperature for best spreadability.)
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar (Can consider flavored sugars for a twist.)
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon (Experiment with nutmeg or cardamom for different flavors.)
  • 1 can Cooking Spray (Can also use parchment liners for easy cleanup.)

Equipment

  • muffin tin

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough carefully and pinch the seams together. Roll it out into a smooth sheet, aiming for a thickness of about ¼ inch.
  3. Spread your softened unsalted butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon over the buttery layer.
  4. Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut it into pieces about 1-2 inches thick. Stand each piece vertically in the muffin tin.
  5. Place your muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  6. Allow the cruffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then gently remove them and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
