{Pinterest Project} Cinnamon Roll Waffles

It’s time for another {Pinterest Project}! This series is where I step away from the computer, and actually make something I saw on Pinterest…usually giving it my own twist. The pinsperation behind this delicious greatness comes from A Hen’s Nest.

All you need is a can of cinnamon rolls, and a waffle iron! I went with the over sized Grands rolls, because I’m gluttonous like that, and an old Toastmaster waffle iron my mom threw out gave me. No bells and whistles around here!

Let the iron get good and hot, then spray it down with enough non-stick oil to enter a body-building contest. Place one one giant roll in the center, close the lid and wait 3-4 minutes. They come out soft and waffle-like in the center, but with a slightly crispy shell. *drool*

Since Valentine’s Day is around the corner, I added a few drops of red food coloring to the can’s frosting before drizzling over the hot Cinnamon Roll Waffles!

You’ll need to re-spray the iron between rolls because they tend to stick. And be forewarned, the cinnamon clumps will make a hot mess of your waffle iron….but sweet mother, is it ever worth it!

I have made these THREE different times in the past few weeks, and everyone always goes BONKERS for them. Seriously, I may never make waffle batter again! Thanks for the amazing idea, Henrietta!

What do you think? Me thinks it’s B4D (breakfast for dinner) tonight again!

    These are non-fat right? Ha! They do look delicious. I have to say though, I've pinned a lot of recipes from pinterest and have tried a few. I haven't been impressed with one yet. I'll have to try these. I mean you can't go wrong with cinnamon buns right?

  14. And exactly how are you NOT 300 pounds? You clear have a pact with the devil. And cinnamon rolls are my weakness — along with fries, burgers, potato chips, anything in a pop seal tube and Coke. Yes, I will die at 45 but happy (and full)….

    Hey, Anonymous – go away. There's something not very nice about criticizing FROSTING for Heaven's sake.
