Delight in warm, gooey Blackstone Cinnamon Rolls made easy on your griddle. This recipe features refrigerated cinnamon roll dough enhanced with a cinnamon and brown sugar mixture, cooked to golden perfection on a Blackstone griddle for a quick and comforting treat.

Ingredients

Cinnamon Roll Dough

  • 1 can refrigerated cinnamon roll dough

Filling

  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Griddle: Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat, approximately 350°F, ensuring it is properly heated for even cooking.
  2. Prepare Dough: Unroll the refrigerated cinnamon roll dough onto a clean surface and gently flatten it to even thickness.
  3. Apply Butter: Brush the melted unsalted butter generously over the entire surface of the dough to help the cinnamon sugar adhere and add richness.
  4. Add Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the buttered dough, followed by an even layer of brown sugar to create the classic filling.
  5. Roll Dough: Starting at one end, roll the dough tightly into a log shape, making sure the filling stays inside and the roll is firm but not squeezed too tightly.
  6. Slice Rolls: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled dough into approximately 2-inch thick pieces to form individual cinnamon rolls.
  7. Cook on Griddle: Place the cinnamon rolls cut-side down on the preheated griddle, spacing them slightly apart for expansion. Cover with a lid and cook for 10-15 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve: Once cooked, remove the rolls from the griddle, drizzle with any provided icing or your favorite glaze, and serve warm to enjoy the perfect gooey treat.

Notes

  • Use a lid while cooking to trap heat and help the rolls cook evenly.
  • If you don’t have icing included in your dough can, a simple glaze of powdered sugar mixed with a little milk and vanilla can be drizzled on top.
  • Monitor the heat carefully to prevent burning the rolls on the griddle surface.
  • For extra flavor, you can add chopped nuts or raisins inside the roll before slicing.
  • This recipe is a quick alternative to traditional oven-baked cinnamon rolls and perfect for outdoor cooking or when using a Blackstone griddle.
