Ingredients
Scale
Dough and Filling
- 1 package Crescent Roll Dough (Consider pizza dough for a chewier bite)
- 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar (Essential for sweetness)
- 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon (Defining spice for the rolls)
- 2 tablespoons Melted Butter (For richness and to hold filling)
- 4-6 pieces Skewers or Fire-Safe Sticks (Vital for roasting)
Glaze
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar (For a sweet glaze)
- 2 tablespoons Milk or Cream (To reach desired icing consistency)
Instructions
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon, stirring well to create the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Prep Dough: Unroll the crescent dough onto a clean surface and brush it evenly with melted butter. This adds richness and helps the cinnamon sugar stick.
- Add Filling: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly across the buttery dough, ensuring every section is covered for an even flavor.
- Roll & Slice: Cut the dough into strips. Then, roll each strip tightly into a spiral shape to form the roll-ups.
- Skewer: Carefully thread each rolled piece onto a skewer or fire-safe stick, ensuring you leave space between each piece for even cooking.
- Cook Over Fire: Roast the cinnamon roll-ups over glowing embers for about 5-7 minutes, rotating as needed until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the skewers, drizzle them with the prepared powdered sugar glaze if desired, and enjoy warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use pizza dough instead of crescent roll dough for a chewier texture.
- Be careful not to burn the roll-ups over the fire; rotate frequently to ensure even cooking.
- The glaze is optional but adds a delightful sweet finishing touch.
- Ensure skewers are fire-safe and sturdy enough to hold the dough while roasting.
- Allow roll-ups to cool slightly before eating to avoid burns.
