Measurement Clarification

Before you try any of my recipes I feel I should clarify one thing. When it comes to measurements in tsp or tbsp I don't use an exact tsp or tbsp measurement. I use a literal silverware tablespoon full or literal silverware teaspoon full. What does this all mean? Each tablespoon or teaspoon is closer to double if you're measuring an exact tablespoon or teaspoon.

Yummy Cinnamon Twists

There's pretty much nothing you can make wrong as long as it has cinnamon. So it's no surprise that puff pastry with cinnamon would be delicious! None of that store bought stuff though, we make our own puff pastry....now you can too.

Yield: ~10 Twists

Ingredients:
  • Puff Pastry (Recipe Here)
  • 2 tbsp Cinnamon
  • 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
Recipe:

Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon.


Roll out the puff pastry to 1/4 inch thick.


Even spread the brown sugar mixture on the puff pastry (it's OK if you don't use it all, save some for cinnamon toast mmm.....). Lightly press the sugar into the dough.


Fold the dough in half and square off the edges best you can.


Cut out 1'' wide strips of dough and twist from both ends. Place on a parchment paper lined sheet.


Bake at 400F for 23min or until lightly browned. Once cool you can remove the brown sugar stuck to the bottom of the twists.


Now you have a simple recipe up your sleeves that looks like it came from a bakery (but tastes better...yum). So go ahead, make someone think you worked hard to bake for them.
