The Best Giant Cinnamon Roll Recipe

This giant cinnamon roll is a quick breakfast that will please a crowd and has a built-in "WOW-factor." While I sometimes make individual cinnamon rolls from scratch, when in a hurry, I make one giant roll from a can to enjoy layer by layer or by the slice!

And I also love this method because it's like eating the center part of the cinnamon roll all the way through.

How to Make a Giant Cinnamon Roll

To assemble this breakfast, place one roll in the center of the baking sheet, unravel another roll, and place it around the one in the center of the pan. Repeat with the remaining rolls until you have a giant circle. When you bake it, your giant cinnamon roll expands and becomes even bigger! Once baked, drizzle the frosting.

Frosting the Giant Cinnamon Roll

You can make your own frosting with powdered sugar and a little milk, or use the one that comes with the dough. Warming it for 30 seconds in the microwave for easier spreading. If you want extra frosting, then whip up a batch of my homemade glaze from my whole wheat cinnamon roll recipe. It's quick and divine.
