90 Second Thanksgiving Turkey Cinnamon Rolls

Turkey Cinnamon Rolls

90 second Thanksgiving Turkey Cinnamon Rolls. Get Thanksgiving breakfast on the table in under two minutes so you can focus on the big dinner! These easy to make turkey cinnamon rolls are fun and festive, and a great way to get the kids involved in the kitchen.

I love a huge Thanksgiving feast with Turkey Gravy, Roast Turkey Breast, Make Ahead Mashed Potatoes, Candied Yams, Corn Casserole, Sausage Stuffing, Green Bean Casserole, Cranberry Sauce, and all of the other fixings. But it is hard to want to make breakfast on Thanksgiving when I have so many other foods cooking. Which is why we usually opt for Peanut Butter Toast or Blueberry Mango Smoothies for breakfast.

But this year I wanted to try something different, and I am glad I did. This breakfast idea is not only super cute and easy, but a real hit with the kids.  Just pick up these Rhodes Microwave Cinnamon Rolls, and a few extras to make these darling little turkeys.

These cinnamon rolls only take 60 seconds in the microwave, so if you pair them with pre-cooked bacon slices, these come together in just a few minutes. Or you can make them with homemade cinnamon rolls and freshly cooked bacon. You do what works for you.

Give yourself the easiest Thanksgiving breakfast ever with almost no dishes, and tons of fun!
