Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough carefully and pinch the seams together. Roll it out into a smooth sheet, aiming for a thickness of about ¼ inch.
- Spread your softened unsalted butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon over the buttery layer.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut it into pieces about 1-2 inches thick. Stand each piece vertically in the muffin tin.
- Place your muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Allow the cruffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then gently remove them and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Notes
These cruffins promise golden layers, a whisper of spice, and a sugar-dusted finish that’s impossible to resist.
