  • Author: Luna

Ingredients

– 1 package of refrigerated crescent roll dough

– 1 egg (for egg wash)
– 1 tablespoon milk (for egg wash)
– Optional: icing for drizzling


Instructions

Making Homemade Cinnamon Twists is a fun and rewarding process. Follow these steps to create your own delicious treats:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough onto a clean surface. Do not separate the triangles; keep them in a rectangular shape.

3. Mix Sugar and Cinnamon: In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.

4. Spread Butter: Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough, ensuring all areas are covered.

5. Add Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the buttered dough.

6. Cut the Dough: Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into strips (about 1 inch wide).

7. Twist the Strips: Take each strip and twist it several times. You can create a spiral or a simple twist shape.

8. Place on Baking Sheet: Arrange the twisted strips on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each for expansion.

9. Prepare Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Brush this mixture over the tops of the twists for a golden finish.

10. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden brown.

11. Cool: Once baked, remove the twists from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.

12. Optional Icing: If desired, drizzle icing over the twists for an added touch of sweetness.
