Well o…m…g! These cinnamon buns are about the best tasting things I have ever put in my mouth. They are so moist and gooey… just like a Cinnabon and then covered in some maple syrup we made last year and a cream cheese frosting .

Cinnamon rolls take some time to make but only a few minutes of it requires your attention. This method saves you even more time by using a breadmaker for the original mixing and first rising of the dough.

If you want to make this for a weekend brunch just load everything into the breadmaker the night before and set it on a timer. Then when you wake up you only have to roll it, fill it, let it rise for a half hour and bake it. So allow about an hour on the day off.

Cinnamon-Rolls

Now, let me just say this is NOT a diet recipe. Most of you kinda figured that out but some of you will still be surprised :p There are ways to cut back the calories in this recipes. For instance… using low fat spread instead of butter everywhere it is called for. You can omit the maple syrup and reduce the amount of sugar in the filling. You could use a thick greek yogurt instead of cream cheese in the frosting too. You could make smaller rolls even. In fact, maybe I will release a “cleaner” version of this recipe in the future but I recommend if you are going to try this you go the whole nine yards. Try it just as it is written in its decadent glory! One cinnamon roll won’t make you fat, just like one salad won’t make you thin… if you worry about that kind of thing 🙂

Oh! Very important here…

IF you somehow make it through the day and have not eaten them all you can absolutely freeze some for later. Individually wrap in some plastic wrap and put them all in a ziplock bag. This is the same way I freeze off muffins and other baked goods. Then when a craving hits, you are just a defrost away from a warm, satisfying cinnamon bun!
