You are going to love these as much as I and my little dude Cole did.
I don’t bake often—okay, pretty much never. But then again, I don’t really need to, because Naomi has that covered. But when I do, I want it to be a lot like this—simple, fast and guaranteed delicious. It didn’t take me long to figure out I would be using Pillsbury’s biscuits to avoid making the dough from scratch. And since it worked out so well in this pull-apart bread, I decided to go for it again here.
It worked! Cole and his buddies scarfed them down after a long swim. That’s right, swimming in winter. That’s if you can call 80+ plus degrees winter. I can’t complain though, especially next to those of you who have been shoveling snow for the last few days or weeks. Okay, I’m gonna complain a little, only because I love rain and it so seldom makes an appearance here.
So while winter hasn’t been so great here, these 30-minute cinnamon rolls are—so, get you some Pillsbury Grand Biscuits and get going on these.
