Description

Rhodes Rolls Cinnamon Rolls are a soft, warm, and irresistibly sweet treat made with plant-based butter and natural flavorings. These rolls feature tender, gooey cinnamon sugar swirls and a smooth icing drizzle, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a cozy snack with a bakery-quality experience at home.


Ingredients

Scale

Base Rolls

  • 12 Rhodes frozen dinner rolls

Cinnamon Filling

  • 1/2 cup plant-based butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon (natural flavoring)

Icing

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 23 tablespoons plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural flavoring)

Instructions

  1. Thaw the Rolls: Place the Rhodes frozen dinner rolls on a baking sheet, leaving space between each one. Allow them to thaw at room temperature until they are puffed and soft, usually about 2 to 3 hours.
  2. Prepare the Cinnamon Filling: Mix brown sugar, cinnamon (natural flavoring), and melted plant-based butter in a small bowl until combined. This sweet and aromatic mixture will be spread generously over each roll.
  3. Spread and Roll: Using a flat utensil, gently flatten each thawed roll until it’s about 1/4 inch thick. Spread the cinnamon filling evenly from edge to edge, then carefully roll the dough up from one side to form a spiral.
  4. Arrange and Bake: Place the filled rolls upright in a greased baking dish, leaving room in between to allow expansion. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Make the Icing: Whisk powdered sugar, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract (natural flavoring) until smooth and pourable. Adjust the consistency to your liking by adding more milk or powdered sugar.
  6. Drizzle and Serve: Immediately after baking, drizzle the icing generously over the warm cinnamon rolls. Serve while warm for the best experience.

Notes

  • Plan ahead: Thaw rolls at room temperature to get the softest texture before baking.
  • Even spreading: Make sure to spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly to ensure every bite is flavorful.
  • Watch baking time: Avoid overbaking to keep the rolls soft and moist inside.
  • Use fresh spices: For the best aroma, opt for fresh cinnamon (natural flavoring) and brown sugar.
  • Icing consistency: Adjust the icing thickness to your preference thinner for drizzling and thicker for spreading.
