This amazing waffle recipe is super simple, with the use of canned cinnamon rolls. Perfect for older kids to prepare, these delicious cinnamon rolls topped with a tangy cream cheese glaze would be the perfect breakfast in bed, for mom on Mother's Day.
Canned cinnamon rolls? Yep, you totally read that right. This recipe could be made with one convenient ingredient; a can of cinnamon rolls! Isn't that insane?
Not only is it crazy, it's also the perfect recipe for kiddos to prepare for Moms on Mother's Day. There is no mixing of the batter, no overfilling the waffle iron, resulting on batter overflowing all over the counter. This is totally breakfast made easy!
I can't remember when I first stumbled upon this recipe, on Pinterest. I think it was back in 2012, when my kids were still little.
Back then I was all about simple breakfasts, since I was usually cooking and chasing kids all over the house. So when I found a recipe that was as easy as putting canned cinnamon rolls into my waffle iron, I was all over it! Plus the rolls already come with a ready to use glaze, so that's a total bonus!!
When these waffles cook up, they come out looking super cute. These smaller waffles have all the delicious flavours of cinnamon rolls, a soft and tender inside, and crispy outside; with a minimal amount of work. No oven, no pan, minimal clean up. All total wins in my book!
Since they only require the use of a waffle iron, these waffles are a wonderful breakfast idea for kids to treat Mom on mother's day. Whether it's with the help of Dad, or a solo mission for older children, you can bet any Mom would be happy to be treated to these waffles any time of the year!
If you're feeling adventurous, you can even jazz up the glaze that comes with the cinnamon rolls, by adding 4 oz of cream cheese, a few table spoons of maple syrup, 1/3 C powdered sugar and 1/4 C of your favourite milk (sugar free vanilla almond milk works perfectly).
My kids devour these babies in no time flat, so if you are planning on feeding more than 2 growing teenagers, I suggest using more than one can of cinnamon rolls. Pair them with fresh fruit and your favourite breakfast meat and you have a lovely, insanely delicious and simple meal perfect for any occasion, or even a lazy weekend.
PIN IT!!!

- tongs
- bowl (if you plan on jazzing up the glaze)
