Halloween is a special time. With treats made into creepy delights, kids get excited about something spooky and sweet. These Monster rolls are made from store-bought cinnamon rolls, candy eyes, and pretzels. With these cute Monster Cinnamon Rolls, you can have a fun breakfast or creepy snack.

These Monster Halloween Cinnamon Rolls are so cute and surprisingly easy to make. In about 20 minutes, these go from a handful of ingredients to cute Halloween treats. Easy enough to make on a weekday morning before school, these are a cute Halloween breakfast idea. 

How to Store these Halloween Monsters

After you have made these Halloween Monsters, if you have leftovers, you will want to make sure they are covered well. Store them in an airtight container. If it will be more than a few hours, you will want to put them in the refrigerator so that the icing does not go bad. The cinnamon rolls will last about 4 days when stored properly.

What to Serve with Halloween Cinnamon Rolls

If you are making these cinnamon rolls for breakfast and you are wondering what else you can serve with it, here are a few ideas:

Fruit – Fresh fruit is a great idea to serve with these cinnamon rolls. It completes the breakfast as a more nutritional breakfast. 

Yoghurt – If your kids are anything like mine, a cinnamon bun leaves them still hungry. Combine the cinnamon rolls with a low sugar yoghurt as a breakfast that will keep the kids full. 

Smoothies – Much like the yoghurt or fruit, a smoothie is a great way to round out breakfast. Make the smoothie with fresh or frozen fruit and yoghurt.
