Do you love cinnamon rolls but can’t find the time or have the skills to bake these time-intensive rolls? This recipe for two-ingredient cinnamon roll TikTok hack will save the day and curb your cravings!
We love a good food hack and TikTok recipes are our favorites from hot cocoa bombs and easy one pan mac and cheese. We’re all about saving time in the kitchen without sacrificing flavor and these two ingredient cinnamon rolls are shockingly easy and dangerously addictive to make! My entire family devoured these in one sitting and they make an easy baking hack for when you’re craving something sweet with that delicious fresh-baked flavor without slaving away in the kitchen.
Who came up with this viral TikTok recipe?
The credit goes to one of our favorites @Fitwaffle who creates quick and tasty dessert hacks. Think easy and popular favorites like 4-ingredient S’mores bars and or 2-Ingredient Dulce De Leche ice cream.
How do you make two ingredient cinnamon rolls?
The process for the dough is actually a well-known hack for making bagels like our two ingredient Blueberry Bagels made with self-rising flour and Greek Yogurt. We did adjust @FitWaffle’s recipe somewhat since her recipe. We used the base for our bagel recipe and halved it to make 4 cinnamon rolls.
We kept the cinnamon, brown sugar and melted butter filling approximately the same. As for the frosting we created our own cream cheese-based frosting because we love the tang that offsets the sticky sweet cinnamon brown sugar. @FitWaffle used a powdered sugar milk-based frosting with no cream cheese.
How long do you bake the cinnamon rolls?
In the TikTok viral video, @FitWaffle bakes hers in a 160 degree Celsius (320 F) oven for 15 minutes and makes 5 mini rolls. We made 4 larger sized rolls and instead baked them for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees F.
