Description
This Easy Delicious Cruffin Recipe combines crescent roll dough, cinnamon, and butter to create flaky, bakery-style pastries in under an hour.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 tubes (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll sheets or puff pastry
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- Flour, for dusting
- Optional: Nutella, jam, or chocolate chips
- Optional: Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
- Lightly flour the work surface. Roll each dough sheet into a 12×16-inch rectangle.
- Spread 2 tablespoons of softened butter over each sheet of dough.
- In a bowl, combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over each dough sheet and press lightly.
- Roll the dough tightly from the long end into a log.
- Cut each log in half crosswise, then slice each half lengthwise to make 4 pieces per sheet.
- With cut sides facing out, roll each strip into a spiral shape and place into muffin tin cups.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Immediately roll warm cruffins in remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For flakier cruffins, use puff pastry and bake at 400°F for 24 minutes.
- Mini cruffins: Cut each dough sheet into 8 strips and bake in a mini muffin tin for 18 minutes.
- Cool completely before freezing in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
- To avoid soggy bottoms, do not exceed recommended butter amounts.
- Let dough rest at room temperature for easier handling.
