Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp milk (for icing)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (for icing)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or pizza pan.
- Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it onto the prepared baking sheet to form a large rectangle or circle, pinching the seams together to create a smooth crust.
- Add the Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: Brush the melted butter evenly over the crescent roll dough. In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle the mixture generously over the buttered dough.
- Bake the Pizza: Bake the cinnamon-sugar pizza for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
- Make the Icing: While the pizza is baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
- Drizzle and Serve: Once the pizza is out of the oven, drizzle the icing over the top in zigzag patterns or swirl designs. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Customize the Icing: If you want a richer icing, you can add a small amount of cream cheese to the icing mixture for a cream cheese frosting version.
- Add Nuts: For added texture, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts on top of the cinnamon-sugar mixture before baking.
- Make It Gluten-Free: You can use gluten-free crescent roll dough to make this recipe suitable for gluten-free diets.
