Ingredients

For the Breadtwists:

• 1 can refrigerated crescent dough
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)

For the Glaze:

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Prepare the Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent dough onto a lightly floured surface and press the seams together to form a single sheet.
2. Add the Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Brush the melted butter over the dough and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top.
3. Shape the Twists: Slice the dough into 1-inch-wide strips using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Fold each strip in half lengthwise and twist gently to form a spiral. Arrange the twists on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Sprinkle with Brown Sugar and Pecans: Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the twists. Add chopped pecans if desired for extra crunch.
5. Bake the Twists: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the twists are golden brown and puffed. Let them cool slightly on the baking sheet.
6. Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed.
7. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the glaze over the warm breadtwists. Serve immediately and enjoy the gooey cinnamon goodness!
