Ingredients
-
1 can Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls (8 rolls)
-
8 pieces bacon
-
2 tablespoons brown sugar
-
1/4 cup maple syrup
-
1 tablespoon maple syrup
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C), or follow the instructions on the cinnamon roll package.
-
Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel to drain. Once cooled, crumble or chop the bacon into small pieces.
-
Prepare the Cinnamon Rolls: Open the can of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls and arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish. Bake according to package instructions, usually for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Prepare the Maple Bacon Sauce: While the cinnamon rolls are baking, in a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup and brown sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to bubble. Remove from heat.
-
Assemble: Once the cinnamon rolls are finished baking, remove them from the oven and immediately drizzle the maple syrup mixture over the top. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the cinnamon rolls.
-
Serve: Drizzle with the additional 1 tablespoon of maple syrup for an extra sweet finish. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
-
Bacon Alternatives: For a slightly lighter version, you can use turkey bacon or other types of bacon, depending on your preference.
-
Extra Maple Flavor: If you love maple, you can add more maple syrup to the sauce or drizzle some extra on top of the finished rolls.
- Serving Suggestion: These rolls are great served with fresh fruit, eggs, or a cup of coffee.
