Ingredients You’ll Need:

For the Cake:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• ⅓ cup sugar
• ⅓ cup butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• ½ cup brown sugar

For the Glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions: How to Make the Cinnamon Roll Cake

Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pan

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square or round baking dish to ensure the cake doesn’t stick as it bakes.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. This helps to evenly distribute the leavening agents throughout the dry ingredients, ensuring a light and fluffy cake.

Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; you want to maintain a light, airy texture for the cake.

Step 5: Create the Cinnamon Swirl

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Take half of the cake batter and spread it evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top of the batter, then spoon the remaining cake batter over the top.

Step 6: Swirl the Cinnamon Mixture

Use a knife or a skewer to gently swirl the cinnamon-sugar mixture into the batter. This creates the signature cinnamon roll swirls throughout the cake as it bakes.

Step 7: Bake the Cake

Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. As it bakes, your home will fill with the irresistible scent of cinnamon and sugar. It will be hard to resist checking on it every few minutes!

Step 8: Make the Glaze

While the cake is cooling, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Adjust the milk if you prefer a thicker or thinner glaze.

Step 9: Drizzle and Serve

Once the cake has cooled slightly (you can’t wait too long!), drizzle the glaze generously over the top. Let it set for a few minutes before slicing into this heavenly creation. The cake will be warm, gooey, and packed with cinnamon goodness.

Tips for the Best Cinnamon Roll Cake

• Let it cool slightly: While it’s tempting to dive right in, allowing the cake to cool for 10-15 minutes will help it set and make it easier to slice.
• Double the glaze: If you love a lot of sweetness on top, feel free to double the glaze recipe for an extra decadent treat.
• Add nuts: For added texture and flavor, you can mix in chopped pecans or walnuts into the cinnamon swirl before baking.
• Make it ahead: You can prep the cake batter and cinnamon swirl the night before, then bake it in the morning for a fresh breakfast or brunch treat.
