Ready for Quick and Easy Microwave Cinnamon Rolls?

If you’re craving the sweet and comforting taste of cinnamon rolls but don’t have the time or patience to wait for them to bake in the oven, we’ve got a solution for you! In just a few minutes, you can enjoy warm and gooey cinnamon rolls straight from the microwave. Follow our simple steps below to satisfy those cravings in no time!

Ingredients:

  • 1 can of refrigerated cinnamon rolls
  • Butter (for greasing the microwave-safe plate)

Instructions:

  1. Grease a microwave-safe plate with butter to prevent the cinnamon rolls from sticking.
  2. Open the can of refrigerated cinnamon rolls and separate them.
  3. Place the individual cinnamon rolls on the greased plate, making sure to leave enough space between them for expansion.
  4. Place the plate in the microwave. Set the microwave to high power.
  5. Microwave the cinnamon rolls for 1 minute. Check the rolls to see if they have risen and look cooked. If they are still raw in the center, continue microwaving them in 15 to 30-second intervals until they are fully cooked. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become tough and dry.
  6. Once the cinnamon rolls are cooked, carefully remove the plate from the microwave (it’s hot!)
  7. Let the cinnamon rolls cool for a few minutes before icing them. Use the provided icing from the can or make your own cream cheese icing for an extra indulgent treat.
  8. Serve and enjoy your delicious microwave cinnamon rolls!

Note: The cooking time may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave, so keep a close eye on the cinnamon rolls as they cook. Adjust the cooking time accordingly to ensure they are cooked to perfection.
