Description
Scrambled cinnamon rolls are a fun and easy twist on classic cinnamon rolls, transforming store-bought cinnamon roll dough into bite-sized pieces baked until golden, tender, and wonderfully gooey. Finished with a sweet vanilla glaze, this comforting breakfast is perfect for weekend brunch or a quick morning treat.
Ingredients
- 1 (12.4 oz) can cinnamon roll dough, such as Grands! Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons milk, or as needed for consistency
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
- Open the can of cinnamon rolls and separate each roll.
- Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters using a knife or kitchen shears.
- Arrange the cinnamon roll pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the pieces are puffed and golden brown.
- While the cinnamon rolls bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
- Add additional milk as needed to reach your desired glaze consistency.
- Remove the cinnamon roll pieces from the oven when golden and cooked through.
- Drizzle the prepared glaze generously over the warm cinnamon roll pieces.
- Serve immediately while warm and gooey.
Notes
Serve scrambled cinnamon rolls warm for the best soft and gooey texture. Add chopped pecans, walnuts, fresh berries, extra cinnamon, or a drizzle of maple syrup for a delicious variation. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
