Cinnamon roll waffles are a flavorful combination thought up by some genius out there and I tip my hat to the wonderful person with such a brain. This breakfast treat is truly hard to beat.

If you've never had cinnamon rolls on a waffle maker like this before then let me introduce you to a revolutionary breakfast idea. Waffle iron cinnamon rolls are fast, easy, and only take one ingredient to make.
Made with canned cinnamon rolls, this breakfast requires almost no prep at all!
Cooked in a waffle maker instead of the oven you get the tasty cinnamon rolls you love but in a golden crisp shell with a soft and fluffy inside and then topped off with icing, oohh yum, the combination is magical.
🥘 Ingredient
Canned cinnamon rolls: You can use any brand of cinnamon rolls desired. I usually go for the cheaper brands but even Pillsbury turns out wonderful. Large or small just make sure there's enough for everyone and that you plan on people eating 2-4 each because 1 is never enough.

🍴 Recipe Tips
Making this cinnamon roll waffle recipe is pretty simple. These waffles don't take up much space in a waffle maker but you still want to make sure not to overcrowd them so that they can cook up properly. If you're using a mini waffle maker then only plan to put one or two in at a time.
Despite being thicker than regular waffle batter these cinnamon rolls really don't take much time to cook and are finished before you know it making them a great brunch when you don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen.
For a fun flavor twist, you can dip the waffles in a blend of cinnamon sugar after cooking.
🔪 Instructions
Check out how to make cinnamon roll waffles with these simple step-by-step instructions:
Preheat your waffle maker so that it is nice and hot.
Open the can of cinnamon rolls and untangle/re-wrap any rolls that need it. Set the icing aside.
Spray your waffle maker with nonstick cooking spray.
Place 4 cinnamon rolls onto the waffle maker (or just one or two if you have a mini waffle maker). You want the rolls well spaced so that each one gets a corner.
Close the lid and wait for the light to appear saying that they are ready. This will take about 2-3 minutes.
Open the lid and remove the cinnamon rolls. Repeat until all have been cooked.
Place cinnamon roll waffles onto serving plates and drizzle the top with the icing that came in the can. Serve immediately.
