It’s a tradition in my house to bake up Pillsbury cinnamon rolls on christmas morning 🙂 The smell is enough to know it’s presents time! It is generally the only day of the year I will bake them and this year I wanted to add a little something.. So say hello to these delicious apple cinnamon roll cups, perfect way to bulk up the roll without adding extra points..

I made these for our New Years Breakfast and my family thought they were amazing!! I snuck some flax/chia blend between the rolls and the apples just for good measure:)
Another keeper! Thanks so much:)
So glad you all enjoyed them 🙂
How many points plus? These sound so good!
Hi, hmm I am not too sure, I don’t have a package of the rolls on me but there are really no added points so if you have a PP calculator just input numbers from your pillsbury package 🙂 My guess would be maybe 4-5
Hi Kate! I made these today and they’re delicious! I just finished putting the recipe in the WW app and it comes out as 7 SP per cup for me. I even triple checked that I put the correct measurements for the ingredients.
Hi Jen, Glad you enjoyed, I did not use the recipe builder, my rolls scanned were 6 points each, the other stuff I used would not of added a point per cup so logic told me they were 6 points but go with what you feel best 🙂
Sounds good! Thanks for the feedback! I made your Chicken and Rice Crescent Topped Casserole tonight and I can’t stop talking about how good it is…and the big portion size! I’m already looking forward to tomorrow night’s leftovers! ?
That’s so awesome Jen, so glad you enjoyed it
I was wondering what apple you used?
I buy all different kinds, honey crisp, golden delicious and red delicious are my favorites
