Cinnamon Roll Pie Crust


I saw this recipe for Cinnamon Roll Pie Crust on Pinterest last year and gave it a try.  It turned out to be one of my favorites throughout the holiday season!  How could it not be?!  I will be honest that it wasn't even so much the taste as it was the look!  Everyone will be impressed with your skill if you pull this masterpiece together and it really is so so easy.  I made pumpkin pie in mine but really you could do anything you would typically bake.  The original recipe can be found here.

Ingredients:
  • 1 Pillsbury Refrigerated Pie Crust
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg white + 1 teaspoon water, beaten
Directions:
  • Roll pie crust on a floured surface (another shout out to my pastry cloth!)
  • Brush with butter
  • Sprinkle with cinnamon
  • Roll up tightly
  • Slice into 1/2 inch rounds like mini cinnamon rolls
  • Press mini cinnamon rolls, flat side down, evenly into the bottom of a 9 inch glass pie plate
  • Make sure there are no spaces between the rolls
  • Brush lightly with egg white / water mixture
  • Fill with your favorite filling and bake according to that recipe 
I'll try to add some more detailed pictures to this post when I make this next!  You can find some on the original recipe post here.
