These Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls are sure to quickly become a family favorite!! As the mom of the house, I love how easy they are to make and also they are made from ingredients I either have on hand or get for cheap on grocery sales!!! ( have included links to some great products that I have bought on my own and we love. You can buy them as well through my online sales links.)
A couple years ago our oven died and I had some refrigerated biscuits I didn’t want to waste. I, of course, went looking on Pinterest and found the Get Crooked website, word of caution the site sucks you in as bad as Pinterest. That day I found the recipe for Cinnamon Rolls in the crockpot!!!
Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls Ingredients:
- 1 can of biscuits (found in the refrigerated section of your grocery)
- 1/4 c. melted butter
- 1/2 c. brown sugar
- 2 tsp. cinnamon
- pecan pieces (optional) <-I did not do these
Glaze:
- 1 1/3 c. powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp milk (I had to keep slowly adding more but this is a great amount to start with)
- 1 Tsp of vanilla
Now back in the day, I had a little assistant to help me make these. She still helps in the kitchen but how adorable was she??

Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls Directions:
Spray your crockpot with a non-stick cooking spray, I give these two sprays because of the sugar
Roll your biscuits into balls
Melt your butter in a bowl
Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a separate bowl
Roll your bisucti in butter
Then using a fork lift your buttered biscuit out into the bowl of brown sugar and cinnamon mixture
Roll the biscuit in the brown sugar cinnamon until the coated
Lift with a fork into your crock pot
Once all are in you could cover with pecans if desired (My family isn’t a fan of pecans)
Cover the crock pot with a paper towel and then place the lid on top, this will help prevent condensation from dripping on the rolls while cooking
Cook on low 2-3 hrs, I set a time for 1 1/2 hours to start checking them, they finish fast and you can end up with burnt sugar on them if you don’t watch them.
Using oven gloves (I have the ones below and they work out great plus they are a great price ->here, plus since they are black they don’t stain much) place a plate on top of your crock and flip the crock over so the cinnamon rolls flip out on to the plate

Place another plate over the cinnamon rolls and flip again so the soft part is on top to be iced
Mix glaze ingredients (powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla) in a small bowl (add more/less milk as needed) and pour over warm rolls.
The taste is amazing and seriously they are so easy to make the kids do a lot of the work for it.
What is your favorite way to make cinnamon rolls??

Amazing, this looks really good. I’m not sure I could make this in the UK. I don’t know what the equivalent is to biscuits. Something that is found in the fridge section? That puzzles me!
