  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, maple syrup and pumpkin spice.

  3. 3

    Unroll crescent dough on a cutting board. Cut the dough in half so you have two identical rectangles and lay them beside each other.

  4. 4

    Evenly spread the pumpkin mixture over one of the rectangles of dough.

  5. 5

    Place the second rectangle of dough on top of the first rectangle of dough (so the pumpkin mixture is sandwiched between them). Make sure you line up all the edges.

  6. 6

    Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into strips approximately 3/4 inch wide.

  7. 7

    Transfer the strips to the parchment lined baking sheet.

  8. 8

    Twist each strip by picking up one end and twisting it twice, then picking up the other end and twisting it another 2 or 3 times.

  9. 9

    Brush melted butter generously over each twist.

  10. 10

    Mix together the sugar and cinnamon then sprinkle evenly over each twist.
