Cinnamon-sugar pizza made with crescent rolls is my go-to treat when I'm craving something sweet but don't want to spend hours in the kitchen. This easy recipe is perfect for a cozy weekend brunch or a last-minute dessert idea. It combines the warm and comforting flavors of cinnamon and sugar with the flaky, buttery goodness of crescent rolls — it's a match made in heaven! Growing up, my mom would always bake a variety of cinnamon treats during the fall, and this recipe always brings back those comforting memories. Plus, it's a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth with ingredients you probably already have at home.
This cinnamon-sugar pizza is perfect on its own as a delightful dessert or even a sweet breakfast treat. Pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent experience. If you're serving it for brunch, a fresh fruit salad or a hot cup of coffee or tea would complement it beautifully. And for a fun variation, try adding a drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce on top!

Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza Made with Crescent Rolls
Servings: 8

Ingredients
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circle on a pizza pan or baking sheet, with the narrow tips overlapping in the center and the wider edges forming the outer crust.
Press the dough together to form a continuous pizza crust, making sure there are no gaps.
Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough.
In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the buttered dough, spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into 8 pieces. Enjoy warm!
Variations & Tips

For a fun twist, you could add some chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts for an added crunch. If you're a fan of more spice, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the cinnamon-sugar mixture. You can also experiment with different toppings such as a drizzle of cream cheese icing or a handful of mini chocolate chips. And for a lower-sugar option, reduce the sugar by half and add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the melted butter for a naturally sweet flavor.
