Directions
Pie Crust Cinnamon Rolls,There always seems to be at least a little bit of leftover crust when you make a pie. This recipe puts those leftover scraps to use! These are great for the family to snack on before the pie is served. My mom used to always make these when I was growing up and I have continued to do it as well. use a gluten free pie crust recipe and they still come out great! Sometimes I’ll spread strawberry jam in with the butter and omit the cinnamon.,I have been retired for 10 years. My mother always made these out of the left over pie crust. One of my fondest memories. Eating the cinnamon roll warm from the oven in a cozy kitchen.,I had never made these before and I decided to give it a try. I did not have any pie scraps, all I had was one Pillsberry piecrust left over from when I made a quiche. It had already expired (only a few weeks though) and I wanted to use it but didn’t want to make a pie, so I found this recipe and decided to give it a try. My mom told me before hand that they usually don’t taste good but I decided to try anyway. Unfortunately, she was right. We didn’t like it at all. I don’t know if maybe it was the pie crust we used but we just didn’t like it. I cut the pie crust in half and then worked with each half and made a tray. used the scraps from that to make a third tray. The first time I cooked a tray I set it at 20 minutes. It just looked a little brown to me so when I made the second one I cooked it for 15 minutes. That came out better. The third pan, which was the scraps, I cooked for 12 minutes and those turned out the best. I’m happy I tried it but I don’t think I’ll be making it again. I guess the saying “mother knows best” it true.
