Kids in the kitchen: Easy cinnamon roll turkeys for Thanksgiving morning
by Lindsay Weiss posted in Life
These will make your Thanksgiving morning so fun! The kids can do most of the work (you handle the bacon, they can decorate the rolls) and the end result is festive AND delicious!
If you have a homemade cinnamon roll recipe you love, go for it. I was looking for quick and easy so took some help from the store. There are two important things about this recipe:
1. Before baking, you have to unroll the cinnamon rolls a tiny bit and tuck the end up into the roll. See pic below. This helps create a "neck" for the turkey.
2. You need to bake these in a round (9-10") cake pan. If you bake on a cookie sheet, they spread and don't rise as high, so your turkey looks a little flat.
That's it! Then let the kids at it. The bacon "feathers" don't need to be perfect, so let the little hands put them wherever they want! Everyone will gobble, gobble these up...
Easy Turkey Cinnamon Rolls
Adapted from Pillsbury. I just simplified everything so little hands could help with these.
1 can (17.5 oz) Pillsbury Grands refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
10 slices bacon
5 candy corns
candy eyes
Cook or bake bacon until crisp; drain on paper towel-lined plate.
Heat oven to 350°F. Spray round baking pan with cooking spray.
Set icing aside. Separate dough into 5 rolls. Unroll each roll about 1 inch; tuck dough into roll to create neck of turkey. (See pic below for "tucking", make sure to pull the end all the way down. Remember...
