Cinnamon Twists

These inside-out cinnamon twists are soft, buttery, and packed with cinnamon sugar in every layer. Baked in a loaf pan for easy pull-apart pieces, they’re an easy homemade upgrade to classic cinnamon twists — better than Domino’s and ready in under 40 minutes.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can jumbo cinnamon rolls refrigerated (rolled style, not biscuit dough)
  • 1 stick ½ cup butter, melted
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • Icing packet from the cinnamon rolls

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang.
  • In a small bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until combined.
  • Unroll each cinnamon roll into a long strip.
  • Brush strips generously with the cinnamon butter mixture.
  • Cut each strip in half so pieces are about 8 inches long.
  • Take two strips and twist them together. Brush the outside with more cinnamon butter.
  • Place twisted dough into the prepared loaf pan. Repeat until pan is filled.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, or until puffed, golden, and no longer doughy in the center.
  • Let cool slightly, then drizzle with the reserved icing before serving.
