Ingredients

Scale

For the Cinnamon Rolls:

  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated cinnamon roll dough (with icing included)
  • 6 slices cooked bacon, chopped

For the Maple Glaze:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bacon:
    Cook the bacon until crispy, then chop into small pieces. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Dough:
    Preheat your oven according to the package instructions on the cinnamon roll dough. Open the can and unroll each cinnamon roll slightly, sprinkling a few pieces of bacon inside. Roll back up and place on a baking dish.
  3. Bake the Cinnamon Rolls:
    Bake as directed on the package, typically for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Make the Maple Glaze:
    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the maple syrup, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Assemble:
    Once the cinnamon rolls are baked, drizzle the maple glaze over the top. Sprinkle with remaining bacon bits for garnish.
  6. Serve:
    Serve warm and enjoy the combination of sweet, salty, and smoky flavors.

Notes

  • For a deeper maple flavor, use dark maple syrup.
  • You can add a pinch of cinnamon to the glaze for extra warmth.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days and reheated in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.
