Looking for a change from the same old breakfast? Then you need to try these Cinnamon Crescent Bites!
They make an easy to grab and go breakfast, or a great sweet treat for after dinner dessert.
Bonus: if you don’t feel like spending the time to make the dough, you can use store bought crescent dough. I won’t tell anyone 😉
