Description
These adorable Cinnamon Roll Reindeer turn refrigerated cinnamon rolls into a fun and festive Christmas breakfast in just 15 minutes. Decorated with pretzel antlers, candy eyes and a red M&M nose, they’re an easy holiday treat that kids will love making and eating on Christmas morning.
Ingredients
- 5 Pillsbury Grands cinnamon rolls, or your favorite canned cinnamon rolls
- 10 mini pretzels, plus extra in case any break
- 20 edible candy eyes
- 10 mini red M&Ms
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll each cinnamon roll and cut it in half. Roll each half back up into a smaller cinnamon roll and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet. If you’re using smaller canned cinnamon rolls instead of Pillsbury Grands, you can leave them whole.
- Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, until the cinnamon rolls are puffed and lightly golden around the edges.
- While the cinnamon rolls are baking, carefully break each mini pretzel in half to make two curved pieces for the reindeer antlers. It’s a good idea to have a few extra pretzels since some may break unevenly.
- Remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and drizzle the included icing over them while they’re still warm.
- Before the icing sets, press two candy eyes and one mini red M&M onto each cinnamon roll to make the reindeer faces.
- Add two pretzel pieces to the top of each cinnamon roll for the antlers. Serve and enjoy!
