Mmm… cinnamon rolls! I love cinnamon rolls and love them even more when they are a snap to make with ingredients I have at my house! So these Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls from Gooseberry Patch’sSlow-Cooker Fall Favoriteswere right up my alley!
Aunt Lou here.
I am a breakfast girl through and through. I would be perfectly fine eating breakfast for all three of my meals. I love the flavor (and sweetness of some recipes) and how many of the recipes are easy peasy to throw together!
I actually made Pioneer Woman’s Cinnamon Rolls for a work birthday party back when Michael and I met. I had an extra pan of rolls and gave it to him. He asked me out on our first date within an hour. I didn’t know it at the time, but it turned out that the way to Michael’s heart definitely was through his stomach.Those cinnamon rolls are an all day venture though…just ask Cris. Michael had just returned from a vacation with some of his family and invited me over, but I had to wait for the rolls rise and rise before I could even get to the other steps of the recipe. I don’t know who was more ready for me to go see Michael…me or Cris. I was driving her crazy with how antsy I was. 🙂

Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls
Never fear though! These Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls are so easy to throw together. And better yet, the ingredients are most likely already in your fridge and cabinets!
I did alter the icing recipe a bit because we are huge fans of almond extract (and from experience I can say that it is worth it to spend the extra money and not get the imitation…oh my!). Cris gave me the idea to use almond extract to alter PW’s cinnamon roll icing and then I used almond extract in the icing for these oober delicious Lightning Bars, so I couldn’t resist with these Crock Pot Cinnamon Rolls. Yum!

Slow Cooker Recommendation
MyWest Bend 6-Quart Round Slow Cookerwas perfect for this recipe since it is round. I would guess that even an oval 6 quart slow cooker would work though. They don’t fill up the crock, but you need the space to make them fit on one layer.

The paper towel goes on top of the crock and under the lid. It catches the condensation that would otherwise drip on top of your rolls. They are so yummy! Enjoy!
