Ingredients

  • 2, 17.3 oz puff pastry packages 4 sheets thawed but cold still
  • 1 ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter softened *see note

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F and spray a standard 12-size muffin tin with cooking spray. *see note
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Remove 3/4 cup of the cinnamon sugar to use to roll the cooked cruffins in.
  • Lay out 2 sheets of your puff pastry horizontally (so the wider sides are on top and bottom) and spread the butter evenly between the 2 sheets. If you need to roll out your dough, make it 9.75” X 10.5” X 3/16”.
  • Sprinkle the portion of the cinnamon-sugar mixture that you didn’t set aside evenly over both pastry sheets. Place the other 2 sheets on top of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Use a pizza cutter to cut each stacked sheet into 6 pieces each. Roll each strip like a cinnamon roll and place into the prepared muffin tin. Continue until your muffin tin is full and all strips are rolled.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown. Don’t underbake or the center won’t be cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 3-5 minutes before removing from the tin. Roll the warm cruffins around in the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture or sprinkle it on top. Enjoy fresh and warm.
