I love baking! And since it’s the Holiday season, I decided to take a break until Jan 2nd on watching what I eat…so I have been somewhat overindulgent the last few weeks. I was craving cinnamon rolls the other day, but looking at recipes online I found out that most doughs for cinnamon rolls take a long time (the dough has to rise.) I don’t know about you, but waking up at 4am to make dough for cinnamon rolls doesn’t sound very fun to me. I found variations of quick dough cinnamon roll recipes online and came up with this one by combining a couple of them. This recipe is faster than the original long rising cinnamon rolls and it tastes just as good! It would be a nice little treat for your family on New Year’s morning! It’s quick, easy, and they will think you got up extra early to slave over the oven!
