Heavenly Cinnamon Roll Breadtwists deliver all the warm, buttery goodness of classic cinnamon rolls in a fraction of the time. These soft, golden twists are layered with cinnamon sugar, baked to tender perfection, and finished with a sweet vanilla glaze that melts into every swirl. They’re quick enough for busy mornings yet special enough for brunch, holidays, or anytime you crave a little cinnamon roll magic without the long rise times.
Using refrigerated pizza or crescent dough keeps the process wonderfully simple while still delivering a soft, fluffy texture. The cinnamon-sugar filling melts into the dough as it bakes, creating caramelized pockets and beautiful spiraled layers. Twisting the dough adds shape and texture, giving each piece an artisanal look with minimal effort.
Fresh from the oven, the breadtwists are irresistible—soft, warm, and infused with buttery cinnamon aroma. The glaze comes together in seconds and adds a silky sweetness that ties everything together. Enjoy them as breakfast, dessert, or a cozy afternoon treat.
