Can I make cinnamon rolls the night before Christmas?
Sure! I would recommend making the cinnamon rolls the night before and frosting them the next morning. You can re-heat the cinnamon rolls in the oven and then frost them. This will prevent them from drying out or the icing from ruining during re-heating.
What is the best make-ahead Christmas breakfast?
I personally love our slow cooker breakfast casserole as a make-ahead Christmas breakfast. As I mention above, you can also make these cinnamon rolls ahead of time so you can spend as much time as possible with your family on Christmas morning.
