Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough

2 tbsp butter, melted

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

For the glaze:

½ cup powdered sugar

1 tbsp milk

½ tsp vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Unroll the crescent dough and press the seams together to form a flat crust on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Brush the dough with melted butter. In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and sugar together, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the dough.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

While the pizza bakes, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the glaze.

Once the pizza is out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over the warm crust. Slice into squares or triangles and enjoy!

Variations

Add a crunch: Sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts on top before baking.

Caramel drizzle: Swap the vanilla glaze for a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra sweetness.

Chocolate twist: Mix in mini chocolate chips before baking for a chocolatey version.

Cream cheese glaze: Replace the vanilla glaze with a cream cheese frosting for a richer topping.

Pumpkin spice version: Swap cinnamon for pumpkin spice to give it a fall-inspired flavor.

Storage/Reheating

To store leftovers, I place them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If I want to keep them fresh longer, I store them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

For reheating, I pop a slice in the microwave for about 10 seconds to warm it up. If I want a crispier texture, I reheat it in a 300°F oven for 5 minutes.

FAQs

How do I keep the crescent dough from separating?

I press the seams together firmly before baking. If needed, I use a rolling pin to flatten and seal the dough.

Can I use puff pastry instead of crescent rolls?

Yes! Puff pastry will make the crust even flakier and crispier. Just adjust the baking time as needed.

What’s the best way to drizzle the glaze?

I use a spoon or a small zip-top bag with a tiny corner snipped off for a neater drizzle.

Can I make this ahead of time?

I prefer making it fresh, but I can bake the crust in advance and add the glaze just before serving.

What can I serve this with?

I love pairing it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a warm cup of coffee for a perfect treat.
