I have the tendency to buy tubes of cinnamon buns, and then forget about them. I have grand ideas of how they will be the perfect addition to Sunday morning, while we bond over breakfast on the patio… but instead, they sit in the fridge, usually until it’s time to clean it out, and then I see that they have either passed their expiration date, or that they are almost there. This morning I found two tubes that had a few weeks before they were ready for the trash, and feeling in the mood for cinnamon gooey-ness, I turned on the oven. But then, I remembered this pin!

Thank heavens, because instead of waiting for our ancient oven to warm up (it’s ridiculous how long it takes!), I pulled out the waffle iron.
I am telling you, this has to be the easiest way to make waffles. I just popped open the can, sprayed the waffle iron down with cooking spray, put four buns on the iron and closed.
Sorry for the blurry pic!
In about two minutes, they were ready!
That was too easy!
Then I slathered them with the buttercream frosting that comes in the tube and they were ready to serve!
Delicious!!
The very best part of this – well, besides how delicious they are – is that there isn’t much to clean up. Just wipe down the waffle iron and toss out the trash.
Thanks for stopping by!
Eliesa

I try not to buy the stuff in the cans but this looks too good and easy to not try. Thinking to add a drizzle of caramel and some toasted pecans for breakfast/dessert. Always looking for something quick for morning. Thanks!

Our family has loved these for years!!! They are the easiest quick breakfast treat ever! We’ve even made cinnamon roll bites, by cutting each one into four pieces, and serving with toothpicks for a breakfast brunch gathering.
