Recipe Description
Let me first start out by saying that these cinnamon rolls were made exclusively by my hubby. He is Mr. Breakfast whereas me, I am not. I am more of a “grab something quick and go” kind of gal.
This past weekend, he mentioned he was in the mood for homemade cinnamon rolls. Since I had a can of already made cinnamon rolls in the fridge, I suggested we make those and call it good. Well, he wanted the real deal and said he would whip up a batch. Wow am I ever glad he did. Homemade is SO much better then canned! The dough was perfectly fluffy and pumpkin spice filled, the cinnamon filling was amazing, and the cream cheese frosting complimented the rolls perfectly. Paired with a cup of coffee, this was a winner!!
This recipe makes a 9 x 13 baking pan, so about 22 rolls. My hubby made our dough using our bread machine, but if you don’t have one, you can make the dough by hand!! These also freeze perfectly if you want to make them ahead and save them for the upcoming Holidays!!
Enjoy!
