Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tubes (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup maple syrup
- 0.25 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon milk (for powdered sugar drizzle)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or a similar-sized baking dish.
Open the crescent roll dough tubes and separate the dough into individual triangles.
Cut each triangle of dough into 2 to 3 smaller pieces. Roll or shape them roughly into balls or clusters, but do not worry about perfection.
In a medium bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
Dip each piece of crescent dough into the butter and sugar mixture, ensuring all sides are coated. Place the coated dough pieces in the greased pan, layering them slightly on top of each other.
If using chopped pecans, scatter them over the dough evenly at this point.
Once all dough pieces are layered, drizzle the maple syrup evenly over the top of the dough in the pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pull-aparts are puffed and golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the middle should come out clean or with only sticky syrup (no raw dough).
Allow the pull-aparts to cool for 5-10 minutes before removing from the pan or serving directly from it.
For the optional drizzle, combine powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl and mix until smooth. Drizzle this over the warm pull-aparts for an extra touch of sweetness.
Serve warm. Enjoy your Lazy Maple Crescent Pull Aparts with a cup of coffee or tea!
