Ingredients (Serves 4-6)

For the Pizza Base:

• Crescent roll dough: 1 can (8 oz or 225 g)
• Butter (melted): 2 tbsp

For the Cinnamon-Sugar Topping:

• Granulated sugar: ½ cup (100 g)
• Ground cinnamon: 2 tsp
• Butter (melted, for brushing): 2 tbsp

Optional:

• Vanilla icing (for drizzling): ¼ cup (optional)

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Crescent Dough

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. Press the dough to form a solid, even layer, pinching together any perforated seams to create a full pizza base.

Step 2: Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture

1. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Stir to mix well.

Step 3: Add the Topping

1. Brush the crescent dough with the 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
2. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top of the dough.
3. If you like extra sweetness, you can drizzle more melted butter on top before baking.

Step 4: Bake the Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza

1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and the cinnamon-sugar topping has melted into a bubbly, caramelized layer.

Step 5: Serve

1. Once baked, remove the cinnamon-sugar pizza from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
2. Optionally, drizzle with vanilla icing for extra sweetness and flavor.
3. Slice and serve while warm. Enjoy!

Tips for Success:

• For extra flavor: Add a pinch of salt to the cinnamon-sugar mixture to enhance the sweetness.
• Crispier crust: If you prefer a slightly crispier base, bake for an extra 2-3 minutes. Just be sure to keep an eye on the edges to prevent burning.
• Drizzle icing: If you like the flavor of icing, use a store-bought vanilla icing or make your own by mixing powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract.

Recommendations:

• Serving Suggestions: Serve this cinnamon-sugar pizza as a dessert or sweet breakfast treat with a cup of coffee or milk.
• Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. You can reheat it in the microwave for a few seconds to restore its softness.
• Variation: Try adding chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, or fruit (like sliced apples or berries) on top before baking for added texture and flavor.
