Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Prepare the Crescent Roll Base

Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Press the seams together gently to create one solid sheet of dough. You can also lightly roll it out to ensure an even thickness.

Step 3: Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture

In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together.

Step 4: Brush with Butter and Sprinkle Cinnamon Sugar

Brush the melted butter evenly over the crescent roll dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the top, making sure it’s evenly distributed.

Step 5: Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the dough is fully cooked.

Step 6: Make the Glaze

While the pizza bakes, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, add a tiny splash of milk; if it’s too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar.

Step 7: Drizzle and Serve

Once the crescent roll pizza is out of the oven, let it cool slightly (about 5 minutes). Drizzle the glaze over the top using a spoon or piping bag. Slice into squares or triangles and serve warm.

What to Serve with Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza

This dessert pizza is wonderful on its own, but you can elevate it even further with these pairings:

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream: The warm, gooey pizza with cold ice cream is pure bliss.
• Fresh fruit: Strawberries or bananas complement the cinnamon flavors beautifully.
• Coffee or tea: Pair it with your favorite hot drink for a cozy treat.

Tips for the Perfect Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza

• Don’t overbake: Keep an eye on the crescent dough to prevent it from getting too crisp. The goal is a golden, flaky crust.
• Make it neat: For even drizzle lines, transfer the glaze to a zip-top bag, snip a small corner, and pipe it over the pizza.
• Double the recipe: This pizza is so good it disappears quickly—consider making two if you’re serving a crowd!

How to Store Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza

• Room Temperature: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
• Refrigerator: To keep it fresher longer, refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave or oven before serving.
• Freezer: Freeze individual slices for up to 2 months. Thaw and reheat as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use crescent roll sheets instead of perforated dough?

Yes! Crescent roll sheets work perfectly and eliminate the need to press seams together.

What can I use instead of powdered sugar for the glaze?

If you’re out of powdered sugar, you can make a simple syrup by heating 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1 tablespoon of water until dissolved. Drizzle this over the pizza for a glossy finish.

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes, but it’s best enjoyed fresh! You can prepare the crescent dough with the cinnamon sugar in advance, then bake and glaze just before serving.
