Turn leftover pie dough scraps into delicious and easy cinnamon and sugar pie crust treats, your family will love them! My mom made this treat for us all the time growing up, so it’s very nostalgic to me. These pie crust treats are simple to make, delicious right out of the oven, and make for a unique snack to share.
While you can use store-bought pie dough for this recipe, I highly recommend just making your own, it’s easy and super fast.
Ingredient list for Easy Cinnamon and Sugar Pie Crust Treats

- Use salted butter in this recipe.
- Whisk your cinnamon and sugar together before sprinkling on to the dough, instead of adding one at a time.
- Adding ice cold water to the dough makes a difference and helps create a flaky texture!
- Be sure to sprinkle your counter well with flour before rolling out your dough so it doesn’t stick after you’ve rolled it thin.

Prick each strip with a fork before baking so they don’t bubble up in the oven. It only takes a minute to do and makes a big difference in how they bake up!
No need to add any egg wash, just mix up your cinnamon and sugar and add to each strip of dough.
Bake the treats until they are golden brown, and even a little more done on the ends… I love the flavor it adds!
