PREPARATION

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out pie crust into a thin rectangle. (It’s okay if it’s roughly shaped.)
3. Brush dough with melted butter.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Sprinkle over melted butter on pie crust.
5. Starting at the bottom long end of the rectangle, roll dough into a log jelly-roll style. Tuck ends of dough under to close the roll.
6. Using a sharp knife, cut into 1-inch rounds. Place on prepared baking sheet 1-inch apart.
7. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Scrape away any leaked caramelized sugar and let cool completely. Enjoy!
