Easy Cinnamon Rolls Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Prepare the cinnamon filling: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon.
-
Prepare the dough: Open the can of biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Roll each biscuit into a flat circle (about 4 inches in diameter). You can do this with your hands or a rolling pin.
-
Add filling: Brush each rolled-out biscuit with the melted butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the surface of each biscuit.
-
Roll them up: Roll each biscuit up into a tight spiral, like you would with a traditional cinnamon roll. Place the rolled-up dough in a greased baking dish.
-
Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Make the glaze: While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.
-
Glaze the rolls: Once the rolls are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls.
-
Serve: Enjoy your easy cinnamon rolls warm with a cup of coffee or tea!
These cinnamon rolls are quick, delicious, and perfect for a cozy morning!
