These Delicious Cruffins are the perfect combination of a muffin and a cinnamon roll, with a light, flaky pastry exterior and a soft, buttery center. The twist of cinnamon sugar creates a warm, comforting flavor that is perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack. Each cruffin is golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside, while staying tender and fluffy on the inside.
- Ingredients:
- 1 package (8 oz) puff pastry dough
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper muffin liners.
- Roll out the puff pastry dough on a lightly floured surface. Brush the dough with melted butter, then sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Roll the dough into a tight log starting from one edge, and then cut it into 6 equal strips.
- Carefully twist each strip into a spiral and place each one into a muffin cup, coiling them to fit snugly.
- Beat the egg and brush the tops of the cruffins with the egg wash.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the cruffins are golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
