Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the pie crust dough into a thin rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
Brush the melted butter evenly over the surface of the dough.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Starting from one long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam gently to seal.
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1-inch pieces to form individual rolls.
Place the rolls cut-side down onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each one.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and flakey.
While the rolls are baking, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Allow the cinnamon rolls to cool slightly after baking, then drizzle the glaze generously over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy your flaky pie crust cinnamon rolls!
