SmartLid Cinnamon Rolls

Cheats Cinnamon Rolls

If you love the soft and gooey texture of a cinnamon rolls you’ll love this cheats version. Using croissant dough instead of making your own not only saves time but creates a very similar roll to a high street coffee chain.

We’ve used the Ninja 15 in 1 Smartlid as it adds that extra steam to the bake but you could use an air fryer or oven.

A full list of ingredients is in the description.

1 tube croissant dough

50g dark brown sugar

1 tbsp cinnamon

Method

Melt your butter in the microwave.

Roll out the croissant dough and divide into two.

Mix together your sugar and cinnamon.

Brush your melted butter over the dough and then scatter your sugar/cinnamon mix on top.

Roll each half of the dough up longways and divide each log into 4 rolls.

Place your rolls in a parchment lined springform pan, brush with melted butter and STEAM BAKE for 10 mins.

Check the rolls and cover the pan with foil if they are already golden, STEAM bake for a further 10 mins.

Remove from the Ninja and allow to cool slightly, meanwhile make the icing glaze by mixing the icing sugar, milk and melted butter together.

Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls and enjoy!
