Quick & Easy Cinnamon Roll Waffles

  

Do you own a waffle iron?  I sure hope so because this recipe which I am sharing with you today is meant to be baked in a waffle iron.  And you can use any size of waffle iron.

Today I used my Cuisinart Griddler pan, which has grill inserts, griddle inserts and waffle inserts.  I love this pan because it is so very versatile.

I also have some mini waffle makers.  They would also work well for these.

 

These quick and easy cinnamon roll waffles are a real doddle to make. What if I told you that you could be sitting down and enjoying these with your family in about five minutes tops! (Depending on the size of your waffle maker.)

You only need one ingredient plus a waffle maker to make these tasty breakfast treats!

So easy I'm almost embarrassed to show them to you, but so delicious that I can't help showing them to you. If you are a working mum, you will really appreciate how quick these are to make.  Who wants to spend their whole weekend chained to a stove!!

 

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE QUICK & EASY CINNAMON ROLL WAFFLES

• 1 can of Jus Roll or Pillsbury refrigerated cinnamon rolls 

And a waffle machine of course.  Today I used a can of Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls.  They worked wonderfully. 

 

In the UK the brand to use is Jus Roll. You can find them in the refrigerator section of your grocery store next to the ready to roll refrigerated pastry.  There are six in a package.

The Pillsbury Grand ones had five in a package and the pack of regular ones has 8.

All come with a small container of icing.

 

My waffle baker that I used has four separate insert spaces to bake four waffles at a time.  I baked four first and then the final one on its own.

The only thing you need to make sure is that you do grease the plates of your waffle machine well. I used non-stick canola oil cooking spray.   

 

Also don't have your waffle machine heated too high. Medium is the best temperature.  If you have it heated to too high a temperature you risk burning your Cinnamon Roll Waffles on the outside, whilst they remain raw inside. 

You could also use any scone recipe to make these.  Just roll the scone dough out thin. Spread with butter and sprinkle with plenty of cinnamon sugar.

Roll up tightly and cut into 1 1/2 inch thick slices.   You will probably get about 10.  Bake in your waffle maker as per the recipe. 

 

HOW TO MAKE QUICK & EASY CINNAMON ROLL WAFFLES

Nothing could really be simpler. I promise you.   These are a real doddle and sure to become a family favorite! 

Begin by opening your can of cinnamon rolls and separating them into individual rolls. Set them aside.

 

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and then spray lightly with some canola oil.

Depending on the size of your waffle maker, you can add either four cinnamon rolls into each section, or one cinnamon roll in the center of the waffle maker.  I can cook four at a time in my Cuisinart Griddler machine. 

 

Close the lid and bake for 3 minutes.  At that time they should be golden brown on both sides and cooked through.

Remove to a warm plate and keep warm while you cook all of the cinnamon roll waffles.

 

Once you have them all baked then you can gently reheat the small plastic container of icing for about 10 seconds in the microwave.  

If your icing is in a metal container, scrape it into a microwave safe bowl and heat for about 10 seconds in the microwave.

 

Use a spoon and spoon the warmed icing over each cinnamon roll waffle.  It will collect in all of those waffle dimples.  Oh my  . . . 

Soft and cinnamony, with delicious little puddles of vanilla icing.  What more could a person ask for???

Light as air, soft as a pillow with crispy edges. Sweet puddles of vanilla frosting.   Warm and Cinnamony.

A bit of a cheat, yes  . . .  but once in a while, something like this makes a real treat, both for the cook and the family!  I have never had anyone turn one down.
