Easy Cinnamon Rolls using Pillsbury Grands
As the refrigerated Grands Cinnamon Rolls bake, the vanilla coffee creamer gently soaks into each swirl, infusing the dough with extra moisture and a hint of sweet creaminess that tastes straight from a bakery.
The result is soft, pillowy rolls with a luscious glaze baked right in.
This simple two-ingredient recipe delivers a rich, melt-in-your-mouth treat that outshines ordinary shortcut cinnamon roll recipes with almost no effort.

Insider Tips from My Kitchen to Yours
✔️ DO: Pour the creamer evenly over the rolls so every swirl bakes up soft and infused with creamy sweetness.
❌ DO NOT: Swap in low-fat or watered-down creamer—thinner liquids won’t give the rolls the same rich flavor or tender texture.

Low-fat or dairy-free creamers will work, but the results can vary a bit. Thinner creamers (especially some dairy-free versions) may soak into the dough more quickly and create a slightly less rich texture.
Yes! Pumpkin spice or peppermint mocha creamer will work beautifully and give the rolls a festive flavor. Just swap it 1:1 for the vanilla creamer—no other changes needed. The rolls will soak up the seasonal creamer as they bake, adding a subtle holiday twist without extra effort.
How to Store, Freeze and Reheat
Refrigerate: Store leftover cinnamon rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Freezer: Wrap each roll individually in plastic wrap, then place in a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to 2 months.
Thaw and Reheat: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for a few hours. Reheat in the microwave for 15–20 seconds or in a 300°F oven for 5–10 minutes until warmed through.
