Quick Maple Bacon Cinnamon Buns

Ingredients

• I 8 oz package refrigerated crescent dough
• crisp bacon, crumbled or finely chopped (at least one heaping cup)
• 2 Tbsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon

for the glaze
• 2/3 cup confectioner's sugar
• maple syrup

Instructions

1. Set oven to 375F
2. Unroll the dough on a lightly floured surface and gently form it into a straight rectangle if it is crooked. Push together the seams with your fingertips.
3. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle over the surface of the dough.
4. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly over the surface. Use as much or as little as you'd like.
5. Starting at one end, roll the sheet of dough up. If it is getting soft at this point you can put the roll in the refrigerator to firm up. If not, slice it into 6 pieces with a very sharp knife, trying not to squish the roll as you cut.
6. Set the pieces into a greased skillet or cake or pie pan, with one in the center and the rest around it.
7. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the rolls are golden browned and done throughout.
8. Make the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar with just enough maple syrup to form a spreadable glaze. Glaze the rolls while still warm, and eat right away.
