1 can (8-count) refrigerated cinnamon roll dough with icing
8 slices thin-cut bacon
Cooking spray or parchment paper
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or spray with nonstick spray.
- Unroll cinnamon rolls and separate into strips (not full rounds).
- Place a strip of bacon on top of each dough strip. Gently press to adhere.
- Twist the dough and bacon together, forming a spiral.
- Place twists on the baking sheet, leaving space between each.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the bacon is cooked and dough is golden.
- Drizzle with icing from the cinnamon roll package while warm.
Notes
- Use thick-cut bacon if you prefer extra chew; thin-cut crisps up better.
- Try adding crushed pecans or a sprinkle of maple syrup on top for extra flavor.
- Best served warm, straight from the oven.
