Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s at the right temperature for baking the pizza evenly.
Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pinch the seams together carefully to create a smooth, continuous crust without gaps.
Mix Sugar and Cinnamon: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon thoroughly to achieve an even spice distribution.
Apply Butter and Sugar Mixture: Brush the melted butter evenly over the entire surface of the dough. Then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the crescent roll dough for 12-15 minutes, or until it turns a beautiful golden brown and is cooked through.
Cool and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Once warm, slice into squares or wedges and optionally drizzle with powdered sugar for an added touch of sweetness before serving.

Notes

Make sure to pinch crescent roll seams tightly to avoid leaking butter during baking.
For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of nutmeg or drizzle with cream cheese glaze instead of powdered sugar.
Serve warm for the best texture and flavor experience.
Can be stored wrapped in plastic wrap and reheated briefly in the oven or microwave.
Use parchment paper for easier clean-up and to prevent sticking.
