Ditch the yeast, rising of the dough and complicated recipe instructions and make these Simple Mills Cinnamon Rolls for Easter this year. This post has been sponsored by Simple Mills. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that keep Kroll’s Korner running! What’s even better about these cinnamon rolls is that they are made with pancake mix. Yup. Pancake mix!! Not just any pancake mix either. I’m using the Simple Mills Pancake and Waffle Almond Flour mix to whip these bad boys up. (Or should I say “roll” these bad boys up), ha! This mix is made with a delicious blend of almond flour, coconut flour and coconut sugar for nutrient value. I love finding products like this that have healthy & wholesome ingredients AND delicious taste.
What you’ll need for these cinnamon rolls:
1 Box (10.7 oz.) of Simple Mills Pancakes & Waffle Almond Flour Mix1/3 cup milk (or almond milk alternative)1 1/2 Tbsp. butter, softened2 Tbsp. brown sugar (or coconut sugar)1 tsp. cinnamonCoconut flour/almond flour or gluten free flour for dusting your surface before rolling.
All of the ingredients in this recipe are recognizable and simple. The pancake mix also has a recognizable ingredient list as well: Almond Flour, Arrowroot, Organic Coconut Sugar, Organic Coconut Flour, Cream of Tartar, Baking Soda, Sea Salt. I love how Simple Mills handpicks their ingredients with a purpose and chooses ingredients to nourish us. As a Dietitian, that is one of my top priorities so I appreciate their vision and aim to enrich lives and bodies through real foods.

Pro tip: You’ll want to knead it like regular dough for about 3-4 minutes! This is key for the cinnamon rolls to maintain a great texture.
One of my favorite Easter memories is enjoying brunch with the family. Long hours spent around food in the kitchen and having a nice time. If you plan on doing the same this Easter and need an item to bring, these cinnamon rolls are it!
