What to do with Extra Pie Crust
- 1 whole Batch Of Pie Dough Scraps And Remnants
- 2 Tablespoons Melted Butter (or Butter Spray)- Might Need More, Might Need Less Depending On How Many Scraps You Have
- 1/4 cups Vanilla Sugar (or Plain Granulated Sugar)- Again Might Need More Or Less Depending On Amount Of Scraps
- 1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1.
- Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment or wax paper and set aside.
- 2.
- Collect remaining dough scraps, bring them together into a ball and roll them out into a nice 1/4 thickness.
- After rolling it out, cut it into strips about 1/2-3/4 wide.
- I used my pizza cutter for this step.
- 3.
- Lightly brush strips with melted butter, or quickly spray with butter spray.
- Sprinkle strips with sugar.
- I used vanilla bean sugar.
- 4.
- Next dust your strips with cinnamon.
- You can use as much or as little as you like.
- For the amount of strips I had, I used about 1 tablespoon of cinnamon (my husband loves cinnamon).
- To make dusting as even as possible (and avoid lumps) I dusted my strips with a tiny sifter.
- 5.
- Pick up each strip and twist it into a spiral.
- Place the twist on your cookie sheet and gently press both ends down to secure your cookie and insure each one doesnt unravel.
- 6.
- Bake your spiral cookies at 400 F for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
- Depending on your oven it might take a bit more time.
- Just check every few minutes after the 10 minute mark.
- Then allow to cool!
- Enjoy with tea, coffee ... or dipped in warm caramel or chocolate ganache!
