Helpful Hints for Crock Pot Success
When assembling your crockpot cherry pie cinnamon rolls, make sure to spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the cinnamon rolls.
This will help prevent the bottom layer from becoming overly soggy from the juices of the pie filling.
Depending on your slow cooker, cooking times may vary. Start checking the rolls at around 1.5 to 2 hours to ensure they are cooked through but not overdone.
The rolls are done when they are puffed up, golden brown on top, and cooked through. You can use a toothpick or knife to check if they are fully set in the center.
Can I double this recipe?
Yes, you can double the recipe, but you might need a larger slow cooker to fit the extra ingredients. Be sure to adjust the cooking time and keep an eye on the rolls to ensure they are cooked through properly.
