Christmas Traditions: Cinnamon Rolls

Hi Joni, what a wonderful tradition for you and your family!  I can smell the cinnamon right now.  :)  continued success to you and your family!

Hi Joni: Is the recipe posted anywhere or would you care to share it? I remember when I was younger going to a restaurant called "Freebies" in Fort Collins, Colorado - the cinnamon rolls there home made, big as a large plate and more affordable than the eggs and toast! : ) 

Hi Joni,

 We have a similar tradition. My daughter loves the Orange rolls that you buy in the refrigerated section and bake and frost. Once we forgot to buy them and she went all over town, then the next town over and finally found a package in Redlands at the local market Albertson's. Poor little girl, she drove to about 10 stores until she found them open and stocked with rolls. I will never forget again.

Cinnamon Rolls is a great morning tradition.

Hi Joni,   great to see another tradition for the Holidays.....amazing how each family comes up with something different..thanks for sharing.

Loved the stocking tradition Joni, but I'm loving the cinnamon roll tradition as well.  Yum!

Joni: Dontcha just love all the Christmas traditions?!  We make a big bunch of Monkey Bread as one of our traditions.

I made cinnamon rolls for our Christmas Eve brunch last year. Yummy! But, as the tradition goes it will probably be something different this year.... our tradition (of late) is to celebrate my brother's with a brunch to start the two days worth of holiday!

Joni, and I thought cinnamon rolls were a SUNDAY thing!    Nothing better than the smell of cooking cinnamon rolls!

Okay I'm just now getting to my desk with no breakfast - Suddenly I'm hungry.   Christmas at your place sounds like the place to be!

Now this is a tradition I could get used to. In fact, maybe I'll try it this year:)

Joni,  Ok those look absolutely yummy.  Christmas at your house sounds like so much fun!

That looks so good!  Do you have Cinnabon places down by you?  When you walk by them here the smell just draws you in!

This sounds like a great way to start Christmas day. Coffee and a huge cinnamon roll might be a tradition that some of our AR friends might think about making their own this year. I might need to practice up a little before then just to make sure I do this properly by Christmas.

What a coincidence... cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning is a tradition in our home, too! Although I get them ready before the kids come downstairs and let them rise while we open presents then we cook and eat them. Oh, and thanks alot... your photo made me hungry.

Joni  Now those look delicious.  In our house Arthur makes huevos rancheros for Christmas breakfast

Cinnamon rolls are nice, but my Cinnamon makes French Toast that soaks overnight in the cream, eggs and cinnnamon and is then covered in syrup and pecans, baked and topped with homemade whipped cream.  She doesn't eat it, but boy can she bake it! 

Hi Joni- We have cinnamon rolls too and grapefruit with a cherry in the center (I'm not sure where that one came from)

Mmmmmm! Cinnamon rolls sound so good right now! That is so neat that your husband makes them for you Christmas morning. We started a new tradition for Christmas morning breakfast - French Toast! My daughter makes it baked in the oven and it's sooooo good!
