My Cinnamon Roll Muffins are a delicious breakfast or brunch treat that eliminates a messy pan, but doesn't leave out any gooey and sweet cinnamon roll goodness!

This post is sponsored in conjunction with #SpringSweetsWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to help in the creation of the #SpringSweetsWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

Cinnamon rolls are a family favorite, but they are a bit of a mess to make and clean up. I love to make a variation on a cinnamon roll- muffin style.

My Cinnamon Roll Muffins are easy to prepare and easy to clean-up. Typically, refrigerator cinnamon rolls come with icing, but I like to make my own and infuse flavors of vanilla and ground cinnamon. However, you can use the included icing for a quick shortcut!

I love to use a refrigerated dough because it makes the recipe so quick and easy- about 5 minutes of prep time. Cinnamon rolls in muffin for are perfect because they are ready in a little wrapper and clean-up is a breeze.

  • butter
  • powdered sugar
  • vanilla extract
  • ground cinnamon
  • milk

This week I am teaming with a few friends to bring you everything spring and sweet for Spring Sweets Week. I am also teaming with Selefina Spices for my Lemon Blueberry Upside Down Cake. I love to add a bit of the dried lemon peel and fluer de sal to my cake.

The quality of the spices are fantastic and you can enter the giveaway below for a chance to win some of their wonderful products!

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
  2. Place 10 muffin liners into a regular sized muffin baking pan.
  3. Open the refrigerated cinnamon rolls and remove from container. If you are not making your own glaze, set the glaze aside. If making your own, reserve for after the muffins bake.
  4. Cut each roll in half. Take half a roll and fold it in half to create and circle. Place in the muffin liner. Repeat with remaining dough.
  5. Place muffins in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. While muffins bake, prepare the glaze.
  6. Once muffins are finished baking, top with glaze and serve. Store in a sealed container if not serving right away. Muffins can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds to reheat.

For Glaze

  1. Cream butter with a hand mixer.
  2. Add the vanilla and keep beating the butter. Add ½ cup of the powdered sugar.
  3. Next, add the milk and then the remaining sugar. Beat till smooth.
