One ingredient dishes out both holiday and homemade flavor.
Holiday mornings are the absolute worst time to overcomplicate things. There are presents to wrap, tables to set, and turkeys to thaw—on top of all the mouths you need to feed. So, the best way to approach a holiday breakfast is with ease and speed top of mind.
Now, that doesn’t mean you have to dish out boring bowls of cereal in the midst of all the holiday fun. It just means you could probably use a simple, two-ingredient hack for getting warm, cozy holiday pastries on the table in minutes.
It starts with a humble can of cinnamon rolls and ends with a seasonal ingredient that adds ample festive flavor.
Holiday Eggnog Cinnamon Rolls
Believe it or not, you can use eggnog to make the fluffiest holiday-flavored cinnamon rolls from a can.
If you’ve ever heard the hack of pouring heavy cream over cinnamon roll dough before baking (one of our favorite ways to make canned cinnamon rolls taste homemade), this trick will sound familiar.
With heavy cream, the fat and moisture give the cinnamon buns a softer, squishier texture and even more rise. Eggnog works the same way, but just adds a hint of holiday flair.
Baked in a bath of eggnog, the premade buns are infused with warm winter spices and the drink’s signature custardy flavor, giving the breakfast treats a decadent taste. Plus, the eggnog coating prevents the dough from getting too dark or crisp, leaving you with pillowy, tender, and golden brown pastries every time.
Whether you use homemade or store-bought, the seasonal ingredient will totally transform canned cinnamon rolls—just wait until you see what happens in the oven. We’d recommend using a booze-free eggnog option to keep things family-friendly, but a spiked eggnog (like my favorite one from Costco) is sure to give your breakfast a uniquely merry flavor.
How to Make 2-Ingredient Eggnog Cinnamon Rolls
Yes, we have a delicious recipe for eggnog cinnamon rolls from scratch (which you should absolutely try on a snowy Saturday), but for those quick fix mornings, this canned cinnamon roll hack will give you the same winter-spice warmth and fresh bakery feel in no time.
To start, separate the pastries from the can and place them in a greased 9x13 baking dish, leaving several inches of space between each roll. Before moving to the oven, pour eggnog on top of the rolls, using enough to coat the tops and create a shallow pool on the bottom of the baking dish (likely a whole bottle). Then, simply bake and glaze according to the package instructions.
Finally, sprinkle a pinch of nutmeg on top (to complete the “homemade” look) and serve them warm and gooey. These flavorful cinnamon rolls will taste like you’ve been proofing and rolling them all morning, even if you’ve really been busy checking off the rest of your holiday to-do list.
