Looking at portal.azure.com as of 3/28/2016 it looks like the options have changed from some of the previous responses...

1. Go to portal.azure.com and log in
2. Click on "Resource Groups"
3. Click on "All Settings"
4. Click on "Deployments"
5. Click on the particular resource/deployment for which you want to create a template
6. Click on "Export Template" near the top of the tile/page.

Note: Some of the deployments may not give access to the "Export Template" button. For these, you will most likely see a "Template Link" in the resource summary which gives access to the generic template for that resource deployment.
