Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can Store-bought crescent roll dough
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1/3 cup Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup Chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8-inch round baking dish or pan.
Open the can of crescent roll dough and carefully unroll it on a flat surface. Press the perforated seams together to form a continuous sheet of dough.
Brush 2 tablespoons of the melted butter evenly over the dough.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Scatter the chopped pecans evenly over the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Starting from one long edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Slice the log into 8 equal pieces.
Place the rolls cut-side up into the prepared baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll to allow for rising.
Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
While the rolls are baking, make the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Once the rolls are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls.
Serve immediately and enjoy these quick and delicious cinnamon pecan rolls!
