Cinnamon Sugar Twists

Cinnamon Sugar Twists

Some of the best recipes come from cravings and what you already have at home. These cinnamon sugar twists were inspired by the desire for both a cinnamon roll and a croissant—without either on hand. Puff pastry steps in as the perfect shortcut, layered with coconut sugar, warm spices, and coconut nectar, then baked until golden and flaky. Simple, fast, and incredibly satisfying.

Ingredients

1 block of puff pastry
1 egg
½ cup Copra’s Organic Coconut Sugar
2 tbsp Copra’s Organic Coconut Nectar
3 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger powder
1 tsp clover powder

Instructions

Step 1. Preheat your oven to 375F.
Step 2. Gently roll out your puff pastry.
Step 3. In a small bowl combine the sugar, cinnamon, ginger and clover powder.
Step 4. Brush the puff pastry with a thin layer of coconut nectar.
Step 5. Sprinkle half the cinnamon and sugar mixture over the puff pastry.
Step 6. Fold the pastry in half, then use a roller to roll it out even thinner.
Step 7. Cut the puff pastry into strips, then twist into shape.
Step 8. Brush it with egg wash and place it in a parchment lined tray and bake it until golden brown.
Step 9. Once out of the oven, dust some of the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture. Enjoy it with ice cream, whipped cream or just by itself.
