Is it too bold to say I just revolutionized breakfast? Because really, I did. Monday mornings will feel like Saturdays. Brunch with your in laws will be a picnic in the park. Holidays? Just got more joyful.
This is it people, breakfast does not get better than this.
I love a good crepe. I really really love a good crepe. Filled with fluffy creamy filling and topped with something rich and tasty. Chocolate filling, mousse filling, vanilla filling, orange-cream filling… top it with chocolate syrup, fresh berries, or caramel sauce…. h.e.a.v.e.n!
You know what else I love? Cinnamon rolls. Thank you Cinnabon, you forever changed my life. But today I’m one-upping Cinnabon (no offense, I still love you!).
Recall for a moment your all-time favorite cinnamon roll experience. Cinnabon at the airport? Mom’s specialty on Christmas morning? Well combine that memory with a light and perfectly cooked crepe. Seriously! Cinnamon Roll . . . . CREPES. I would go out on a limb here and honestly tell you that I am convinced that these Cinnamon Roll Crepes are better than a traditional cinnamon roll. Try it for yourself, you mind will be absolutely blowwwwwn! And these are easier and less-time consuming that cinnamon rolls. BONUS. I’m in love. Absolutely head over heels in love.

Breakfast at Tiffanys :))))
I tried these and adored them. My 16 year old keeps asking me to make them again. A definite success. Thank you for the pictures and the recipe.
Aren’t they amazing?! A few months ago my mother made regular crepes and I found myself craving the cinnamon drizzle so badly – it just takes crepes to a whole new level! 🙂
Hi – can I set you a challenge? We don’t have cool whip in Australia, yet so many American recipes use it. Any chance you can come up with home made cool whip to help us out?? We’d love you forever! Cheers, Tarsha.
Hi Tarsha, do you have heavy whipping cream in Australia??
Yes, we do! So just substitute cream then? I did wonder if that would do, not having ever seen/tasted cool whip. Easy!
These crepes look sinful! Going to have them for a Sunday brunch soon. Just pinned & shared… thanks!
Wow! These crêpes are gorgeous!!!!! No. Stunning! Good job!
What gorgeous pictures! It’s almost to pretty to eat. Almost!
These look absolutely amazing! I will definitely be giving these a try. Thanks for sharing!
Whoa, this is epic. A drooler for sure.
Without even tasting this, I know it would be the best breakfast ever! That cinnamon drizzle alone is enough to make my heart melt.
Wow Tiffany! I’m basically drooling right now. I love cinnamon rolls and crepes and this looks like a killer combination. So good! Hope you and your hubs had a great Vday!:)
