How To Make yummy cinnamon crescents
-
Step 1Melt butter on the stove in a small pan. For your child's safety and not to get burned, allow this pan to cool before putting at your work station. This will be used to brush onto buns. Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
-
Step 2Separate individual crescent rolls. On a floured cutting board roll to 1/4 inch thickness. (These will stick when rolling out so make sure you use a floured surface).
-
Step 3Using a pastry brush, brush each piece with melted butter.
-
Step 4Sprinkle Brown sugar and cinnamon mixture over each piece. Add raisins to 4 of them. (Or put raisins on all of them if you prefer).
-
Step 5Roll each bun up starting with wide end. Place on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with PAM or greased with shortening.
-
Step 6Brush each roll with butter. Place in a preheated 350 degree oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Enjoy!
-
Step 7Optional: Add chopped pecans or your favorite nuts to each piece before you roll them up. Use your imagination to add other ingredients like other dried fruit/or let your kids be creative with this recipe.
