Ever had one of those mornings where you crave a cinnamon roll, but also want a croissant? That’s where churro cruffins come in. Imagine golden, flaky layers baked up into a muffin tin, rolled in cinnamon sugar while still warm, and filled with silky pastry cream. Yep, that’s the kind of breakfast fantasy I’m talking about. I made a batch last Sunday and nearly missed brunch because I couldn’t stop eating them straight off the cooling rack. They're that good. Plus, the ingredients are super easy to find, and the process? Way less complicated than you'd think. Whether you’re baking for brunch, dessert, or a late-night craving, these cruffins are the answer. These sweet treats also happen to check a lot of boxes for flavor and texture. They’ve got that perfect crunch on the outside, fluffy softness on the inside, and a cinnamon sugar coating that melts just slightly as it hits the warm dough. If your kitchen smells like a bakery by the end, you’ve done it right.
