Ingredients
Instructions
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate into 4 rectangles; pinch seams to seal.
- Mix sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle evenly over each rectangle.
- If desired, sprinkle chopped pecans over the sugar and cinnamon layer.

- Bake at 350°F for 12 minutes.
- While warm, drizzle with glaze.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg along with the cinnamon. If you don't have pecans, walnuts or almonds can be good substitutes. Keep an eye on the baking time, as ovens vary; check for a golden brown color. For a quick glaze, mix powdered sugar with a bit of milk or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
