Apple Butter Cruffins

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.

Step 2

Working on a lightly floured surface, roll out each tube of dough into a 12x16-inch rectangle. If using perforated crescent roll dough, be sure to pinch the seams to seal them.

Step 3

Spread ½ cup of apple butter evenly over the top of each sheet of dough.

Step 4

Starting on the long end of the dough sheet, tightly roll it up into a log.

Step 5

Cut the log in half, creating two shorter logs.

Step 6

Cut each of those shorter logs in half lengthwise, giving you four sections of dough.

Step 7

Repeat these steps with the remaining two sheets of dough, resulting in 12 sections of dough.

Step 8

Working with one section of dough at a time, with the layered side facing up, roll it tightly into a cinnamon roll shape, tucking in the end piece of dough.

Step 9

Place each roll into the prepared muffin tin.

Step 10

Bake for 22-24 minutes or until the cruffins are golden brown.

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon.

Step 12

Remove rolls from the oven and immediately roll each cruffin in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Enjoy!
