Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin lightly to prevent sticking. - Prepare Puff Pastry:
Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets on a floured surface. Brush each sheet with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon if desired. - Shape the Cruffins:
Roll each sheet tightly into a log, then cut the log into 4-6 equal pieces. Place the spirals upright into the muffin tin. - Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy. - Cool and Serve:
Allow cruffins to cool slightly before removing from the tin. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
Notes
- Fillings: Try adding jam, Nutella, or cream cheese for variety.
