How to Make 2-Ingredient Cinnamon Roll Waffles
- Heat a waffle maker to medium heat.
- Spray the waffle maker on both sides with non-stick spray.
- Place a cinnamon roll in the center.
- Close the waffle maker and press down to flatten the cinnamon roll slightly.
- Allow to cook for 1 minute. (The roll should be crisp on the outside and soft in the center.)
- Repeat until all rolls are done.
- When ready to serve, drizzle the icing over each cinnamon roll.
My Best Tips:
- Watch the Cooking Time – It will vary by waffle maker. Start with 1 minute; add 1 minute at a time as necessary.
- Optional Toppings – Fresh berries, powdered sugar, chopped nuts, whipped cream, or maple syrup can be added for extra flavor and texture.
- Alternate Icing Recipe – If you want to level up the icing, make a glaze by combining:
- 3 oz Softened Cream Cheese
- 2 tbsp Butter, Softened
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla
- 2-4 tbsp Milk
- Experiment with Flavors – Try different varieties of canned cinnamon rolls, such as pumpkin spice or apple cinnamon for a fun twist on this recipe!
- Make for Special Occasions – These waffles are perfect for holiday breakfasts, weekend brunches, sleepovers, and family gatherings!
