Ingredients:
- 1 raw pie crust
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a cookie sheet with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
-
Cutting the Crust: Roll out the raw pie crust on a clean surface. Using cookie cutters or a knife, cut the crust into your desired shapes. Fun shapes like stars, hearts, or simple squares work great for this recipe. Transfer the cutouts onto the prepared cookie sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
-
Butter Brush: Melt the butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave until it’s completely liquid. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each cutout with the melted butter. This step adds richness and helps the cinnamon-sugar mixture stick to the crust.
-
Cinnamon-Sugar Sprinkle: In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon until well combined. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the buttered pie crust cutouts. Don’t be afraid to coat them evenly for that sweet and spicy flavor in every bite.
-
Baking Time: Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cinnamon crisps turn golden brown and crisp around the edges. Keep an eye on them towards the end of the baking time to prevent over-browning.
-
Enjoy: Once baked to perfection, remove the cinnamon crisps from the oven and let them cool slightly on the cookie sheet. Transfer them to a serving platter or enjoy them straight from the tray. These delicious treats are best enjoyed warm, but they also taste great at room temperature.
These Cinnamon Crisps are not only a tasty snack but also a wonderful way to get creative in the kitchen with your little ones. Whether you’re making them for a holiday gathering, a weekend brunch, or just a cozy afternoon treat, they’re sure to bring smiles to everyone’s faces. So gather your ingredients and get ready to bake up some cinnamon-sugar magic! ✨
