Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Sugar Cruffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly dust your countertop with flour and roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Brush the surface of the rolled-out pastry generously with melted unsalted butter and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly across.
  4. Slice the pastry into triangles with about a 4-inch base and roll each triangle loosely towards the tip to create a spiral shape.
  5. Arrange the cruffins upright in a greased muffin tin and set aside.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
