These Peanut Butter Cinnamon Roll Ups are super easy to make. You can even get the kids in the kitchen to help.
My family loves peanut butter. So, it’s a no brainer that I would incorporate it into one of our favorite easy treats.
For this recipe, I started with my basic Easy Cinnamon Roll Up recipe and tweaked it a bit. They are still just as easy, but are stuffed with peanut butter, too!
Some of the jobs that kids can do to help with this recipe are:
- Rolling the bread flat
- Mixing the cinnamon and sugar
- Stirring the cream cheese
- Coating the roll ups in cinnamon and sugar
And, if your children are older, you can even let them remove the crusts from the bread using a butter knife or pizza cutter.
It’s a good thing that these Cinnamon Roll Ups are so easy to make because they are extremely addicting!
Go ahead and try to eat just one…I double dog dare you!
Oh, and don’t throw the crusts away. I saved mine and coated them in the leftover butter and then tossed them with the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture and baked them. Totally delish!
