These Bunny Cinnamon Rolls Make Easter Fun

I love making holidays special with simple, festive recipes, and these bunny cinnamon rolls are the perfect treat – they’re incredibly easy to prepare, unbelievably cute, and always a family favorite for Easter breakfast!

The best part? No need to bake from scratch; just grab a can of store-bought cinnamon rolls and get ready for some fun!

Ingredients

Here’s all you’ll need to make your cinnamon roll bunnies:

  • 1 can Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls (with icing included)
  • Pastel M&M’s (for decorating—mini ones work best for the eyes and nose!)

That’s it! Two ingredients, one super cute treat.

How to Make Cinnamon Roll Bunnies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (or 325°F if using a nonstick cookie sheet).
  2. Unroll each cinnamon roll carefully and shape it into a bunny. Use part of the dough to make ears and the round part for the face.
  3. Place each bunny on an ungreased cookie sheet about 1–2 inches apart.
  4. Bake for 13–16 minutes, or until golden brown and baked through.
  5. Cool slightly, then drizzle with the included icing and get ready to decorate!

Decorate Your Cinnamon Roll Bunnies

Once the bunnies are frosted, it’s time for the fun part—decorating! We love adding pastel M&M’s for eyes and a little nose. You can even use mini chocolate chips or candy eyes if you want to get creative. Let the kids help, it’s the perfect hands-on activity that doubles as dessert prep.

Pro tip: Add a little extra icing to help the M&M’s stick in place!

More Easy Easter Desserts

If you’re planning an Easter brunch or just looking for fun ways to celebrate the season, there are so many cute and easy desserts to try! A few of my favorites include Bunny Butt Funfetti Dip, Bird’s Nest Cookies, Peeps S’mores Dip, and Easter Fluff Dessert.

Spring Treats

Holiday baking doesn’t have to be complicated. These cinnamon roll bunnies prove you can make something adorable with just a few store-bought shortcuts. So what are you waiting for?! It’s time to go pre-heat that oven, bust open a can of cinnamon rolls and some m&m’s and get busy!
