Has Anyone Made Cinnamon Rolls With Ready-Made Pizza Dough?

The other day, l was in Asda and they were selling off their own brand ready rolled Pizza Dough for 20p! So, l bought two!

I rarely eat pizza’s but thought the dough would be good to keep in the freezer.
When l got home, l read the packaging and it didn’t mention that it was suitable for home freezing, so l decided to look on the internet for suggestions of what l could use it for.

I found recipes for Cinnamon Rolls and made some! They were slightly hard but quite delicious!

I had spread softened butter on the whole length of the ready rolled dough, then sprinkled 2oz of granulated sugar mixed with two teaspoons of ground cinnamon over it. I then rolled the dough like a Swiss roll and cut it into approx 2 inch slices and placed them on a well butter greased baking tray.

I cooked them in a very hot oven 200C until golden brown for approx 20 mins.

While they were cooking, l mixed some icing sugar with a little water and a teaspoon of Vanilla essence.
When they came out, l spread some of the mixture on each of them.
Under each roll was a delicious crunchy type toffee where the butter, cinnamon and sugar had escaped from the rolls ...delish!

This is just a rough recipe but there were various recipes on the Internet.

Errrr nope ! But I would never use ready made dough. You only need flour, water, yeast and salt to make a great dough of your own with minimal effort so why buy ready made stuff that will also have preservatives and other unnecessary crap in it?

I made these cinnamon rolls with Spelt flour, a much healthier and more nutritious flour than the usual plain/self raising white flour. In fact it was from spelt grains which I sprouted first before grinding into flour so even more healthy.

Yes, Realist, l totally agree that it’s best to make your own, instead of using bought dough containing additives!
As l explained, the pizza dough was only 20p per pack and this was one of the suggestions for its use.

I have, in the past made Cinnamon Rolls using the ingredients you mentioned, they were lovely but they took hours to make!!

I have used spelt flour to make bread but l think you saw the disastrous result l posted!!
It tasted nice though!

Art, I am going to try this. I wonder how it would be with caramels added in.....don't answer that, I already know, decadent and delish.

Adanac, I’m not sure if you would need caramels but don’t let me stop you!

The reason, l say that is because the butter, sugar and cinnamon that leaks out of the rolls, forms something that is similar to the toffee coating on a toffee apple!
