Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Grease a 13 x 9-inch pan or muffin pans.
- Mix 2 cups of Jiffy baking mix, 2/3 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of margarine or butter, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon to form a dough.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle.
- Spread melted butter over the dough and sprinkle with additional cinnamon and sugar if desired.

- Place the slices in the prepared pan.
- Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Substitutions
For added flavor, consider incorporating chopped nuts or raisins into the filling before rolling the dough. If you don’t have Jiffy baking mix, you can substitute with a homemade mix of flour, baking powder, and salt. Ensure the butter is melted for easier spreading. Roll the dough tightly for even slices, which will help them rise beautifully while baking.
Serving Suggestions
These cinnamon rolls are perfect for breakfast or brunch, served warm with a cup of coffee or tea. For a delightful pairing, try them with a side of fresh fruit or yogurt. Drizzling them with a simple icing made from powdered sugar and milk enhances their sweetness. They also pair beautifully with Mary'S Sour Cream Pound Cake for a dessert spread.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these cinnamon rolls ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough and roll it up a day in advance. Cover the unbaked rolls tightly and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking to ensure they rise properly.
What can I substitute for margarine?
You can easily substitute margarine with an equal amount of unsalted butter or coconut oil for a dairy-free option. Both will provide a rich flavor and texture to the cinnamon rolls.
How do I know when the cinnamon rolls are done baking?
The cinnamon rolls are done when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them as baking times can vary based on the oven.
