With only four ingredients you have the most delicious warm pastry that’s just like the ones you get at the mall only better. Make a batch of these so simple cinnamon crescent twists and enjoy. 

This has to be one of most requested recipes from my family on weekends for breakfast and brunch. 

Why wouldn’t it be? It’s so delicious! 

Flaky on the outside and soft with a slight chew on the inside. The perfect pastry. 

You find similar twists just like these at the malls and in bake shops.

Now you won’t have to take a trip out when you can easily make these delectable cinnamon twists right at home.

Not only are these great for breakfast and brunch, they happen to be a delicious dessert too. Since they are flaky and light, having two each is  not that uncommon like a piece of cake or a donut. 

As the person who is the one who makes these, I love this recipe because there are only 4 simple ingredients. You read that right. Only 4! 

 With those 4 simple ingredients you have a warm from the oven delicious cinnamon twist that everyone will adore. 

Perfectly crisp and light with just the right amount of cinnamon.

So Simple Cinnamon Crescent Twists

Yields 8 twists

What you’ll need to make these delicious twists…

Ingredients:

  • 1 tube crescent rolls, reduced fat works well too
  • 4 tbsp salted or unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Optional glaze

  • 1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
  • 1-3 tsp cold water

 

How to make so simple cinnamon crescent twists

Directions:

  1. Have a cookie sheet ready with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Keep the crescent rolls in the fridge until you are ready to use them. In the meantime mix the sugar and cinnamon. Melt the butter in the microwave.
  3. Open up the crescent rolls and press seams together to make 4 separate rectangles. On 2 of the rectangles, spread butter and sprinkle with sugar mixture. Save some for later. Replace the other 2 rectangles over each of them (like a sandwich)
  4. From the long side, cut 4 strips of dough in each rectangle pouch to make a total of 8 strips. Take each strip and twist a few times.
  5. Lay on the parchment paper spaced a few inches apart. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture over the twists. Bake for about 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Cool for just a few minutes on a wire rack.
  7.  If using the glaze, whisk powdered sugar and 1 tsp water until combined. Add more water if needed. Glaze should be slightly runny but not too think. With a spoon gently pour the glaze over the twists (go back and forth) to cover the twists.  Enjoy warm from the oven.

Note: Best when eaten the same day but can be wrapped up and heated in microwave for 10-15 seconds the next day.
