Can’t decide between cinnamon rolls and waffles? Good news: you don’t have to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take canned cinnamon rolls. Smash them in a waffle iron. Wait 3 minutes. You get crispy-on-the-outside, gooey-on-the-inside magic. Top with the included icing. Done in 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Makes 5 waffles.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
1 can (8-count) refrigerated cinnamon rolls (with icing packet)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Non-stick spray or melted butter for the waffle iron<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Optional: Maple syrup, powdered sugar, or extra cinnamon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Preheat the Waffle Iron<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Heat your waffle iron to medium-high. Spray generously with non-stick spray.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Stuff the Rolls In<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Open the cinnamon roll can. Separate each roll. Leave the icing aside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Place one roll in the center of each waffle iron section. Don’t flatten it first.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Smash and Cook<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Close the lid firmly. The roll will spread and fill the space.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Don’t overdo it\u2014they cook fast.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Pop and Ice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Carefully remove the waffle. It will be hot and pillowy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Microwave the icing packet for 5 seconds. Drizzle over the waffle.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 5: Eat Immediately<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
These are best hot off the iron. Serve with maple syrup if you’re feeling extra.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Yield:<\/strong> 8 waffles (one per roll)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Difficulty:<\/strong> So Easy It’s Almost Cheating<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Storage Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Best Fresh:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Cinnamon roll waffles are prime right out of the iron. Reheated waffles get tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If You Must:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Store leftovers in the fridge for 1 day. Reheat in a toaster or air fryer at 350\u00b0F for 2 minutes. Skip the microwave\u2014it turns them rubbery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pro Hack:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Make a whole batch for a crowd. Keep them warm in a 200\u00b0F oven while you cook the rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
