Recently, I was in San Diego visiting my sister and her adorable kids while my brother-in-law was on a trip. We decided to make the Pioneer Woman's cinnamon rolls, which was a two person job for sure (especially since there was also a 2 year old 'helper' and a 6 month old 'observer'). These cinnamon rolls were absolutely divine, but time consuming and far from healthy! :)
Yesterday afternoon, I decided I would try Money Saving Mom's Bread Machine cinnamon rolls, since I knew that the bread machine would make it much speedier. We served them to our small group this morning, and they definitely got a thumbs up all the way around! This is definitely a recipe I will be making again, as the product was great and the work minimal. One recipe's worth made two full cake pans and one loaf pan...I think it was 14 rolls? I doubled the filling as the recipe suggested. Next time, I might do 1 1/2 rather than 2 times the filling just to make it a tad healthier! Overall, these seemed like a fairly good recipe, health wise (as healthy as you could make a cinnamon roll!). Next time, I'll try subbing applesauce for the oil and possibly half wheat flour. You should definitely try these! If you don't have a bread machine, I believe there is some discussion on how to make them without one in the comments section.
