FAQ
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough the night before. Store it in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and keep it in a warm place. The next day, let it come to room temperature before shaping it into a wreath.
How do I make sure the wreath holds its shape?
After twisting the dough, make sure to pinch the ends together firmly to maintain the wreath shape. Place it on a large baking sheet to bake.
What if I don’t have green food coloring?
You can skip the food coloring or use any other color you have on hand. The icing is just as delicious and festive!
What if the cinnamon rolls bake uneven?
To avoid this, make sure the dough is rolled out evenly. If the wreath shape is uneven, it can lead to parts of the wreath being undercooked while others become too golden brown.
What if I don’t have a piping bag for the icing?
You can use a Ziplok baggie and cut off a small chunk of one of the edges. It’ll work just as good as a piping bag!
What can I pair the cinnamon rolls with?
I recommend pairing the cinnamon roll wreath with hot cocoa or coffee for a perfect holiday breakfast. The rich dough and cinnamon flavor go perfectly with these warm drinks.
MOM TIP: This recipe is great for involving kids in the kitchen. They can help with prepping the dough, shaping the wreath, and drizzling the icing. It’s a fun activity that brings the family together during the holiday season.
