If you are like me and the thought of making cinnamon rolls scares you to death, then whip up this recipe! This is really easy, very fool proof and the result is so good you are not going to believe you made it with your own hands and in your own kitchen.

There’s also not a lot of waiting around for the dough to rise since I honestly don’t have a lot of patience to wait for things to be done.

But can we please go again and talk about the flavor? Because it’s really one of the most delicious things I’ve ever had. First, the filling is really full of cinnamon which in my opinion differentiates a good cinnamon roll from a bad one.

Second, the roll is flavorful, I mean just the roll alone without the filling is packed with flavor! Part of the reason is because we are using buttermilk instead of milk. It really makes a difference.

And finally, there’s the brown sugar part that adds another layer of caramel like flavor.

They are great as a breakfast or even as a dessert, but I personally love to serve them for brunch, and I consider them the best recipe to whip up if you have overnight guests.

They also keep really well in the freezer which means you can make them ahead of time (that includes the baking) and then pop them in the oven once you are ready to serve them. Can we just agree that buttermilk cinnamon rolls on demand seems like a dream come true?
