Ingredients

1 crescent roll dough sheet
⅓ cup apple butter
2 tablespoons butter melted
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the dough sheet and use a rolling pin to roll out the dough until it’s around ¼ inch thick.
Brush the apple butter over the entire sheet.
Cut the dough into one inch strips.
To create the twist, fold one strip in half lengthwise over the top of the apple butter. Bend the folded dough in half again and twist the ends. Pinch the ends together to secure the twist and transfer it to the lined baking sheet.
Bake the twists for 10 to 13 minutes, until golden brown.
Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl.
After removing the twists from the oven, brush with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
