The image shows a close-up of a cinnamon roll pizza cut into eight slices, placed on a wooden board with a white marbled surface underneath. The base is a golden-brown baked dough topped with swirls of melted white icing spread in uneven, glossy lines across the cinnamon-spiced dough layers. The cinnamon appears as fine dark speckles scattered on the light brown dough, adding texture. The layers of dough peek through beneath the shiny icing, showing a soft and fluffy texture with slightly raised edges, making the slices look thick and rich. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1-2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circle on the baking sheet with the pointed ends facing outward to form a pizza shape. Press the seams together to create a solid crust.
Step 3: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
Step 4: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Step 5: While baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the glaze’s consistency by adding more milk if needed.
Step 6: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the top, slice, and serve warm.

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, add chopped nuts or mini chocolate chips before baking.
Use cream cheese in the glaze instead of milk for a richer frosting.
To make it dairy-free, substitute the butter with a plant-based spread and use a milk alternative in the glaze.

Storage

Store leftover cinnamon-sugar pizza in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a low oven or microwave for a few seconds to refresh the texture. The glaze is best added fresh before serving.

How to Serve

The image shows a round cinnamon roll pizza cut into eight triangular slices. The base is golden brown and slightly crispy with a soft texture. Each slice is topped with a thick white icing drizzle spread unevenly in wavy lines, and sprinkled with a cinnamon powder layer that gives a warm brown color and a slightly grainy texture. The pizza rests on a white marbled surface that softly reflects the warm tones of the cinnamon and icing. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use puff pastry instead of crescent rolls?

Yes, puff pastry can be used as an alternative. It will be flakier and slightly different in texture but still delicious.

What can I use if I don’t have vanilla extract?

You can omit the vanilla extract or substitute it with a small amount of almond extract or maple syrup for a different flavor twist.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough and Topping

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Glaze

1/2 cup powdered sugar
1–2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Prepare the dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circular pattern on the baking sheet with the pointed ends facing outward, pressing the seams together to form a continuous crust resembling a pizza base.
Add the cinnamon-sugar topping: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough, then generously sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top for a sweet, flavorful coating.
Bake the pizza: Place the cinnamon-sugar crescent pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
Prepare the glaze: While the pizza bakes, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the milk amount to achieve a drizzleable consistency.
Finish and serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the vanilla glaze over the top, slice, and serve warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

Use parchment paper to make cleanup easier and prevent sticking.
Adjust the cinnamon-sugar quantity to taste for a milder or stronger cinnamon flavor.
You can substitute milk with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free glaze.
Serve immediately for the best texture; leftovers can be reheated briefly.
Optional: Add chopped nuts or raisins before baking for extra texture.
