I know what you’re asking yourself. Why would I ever need just Cinnamon Roll Filling?
Doesn’t that belong in Cinnamon Rolls?
Trust me, I didn’t know I needed it either until I made too much for a batch of easy cinnamon rolls and stored the extra in the fridge instead of throwing it out. I then found that I used it on sweet potatoes, pound cake, toast, crescent rolls, and biscuits. As well, I stirred a teaspoon of it in my hot chocolate. It was fantastic. You can even add cinnamon bun
That’s when I decided, I will always need Cinnamon Roll Filling in my life and in my fridge! 😄
Maybe you do too!

I actually used this before I saw your recipe…or something close to it…and mixed it into vanilla ice cream. I was an avid addict to Breyer’s Cinnabon Ice Cream (yes, I know, technically it is not ice cream). But Cinnabon pulled the license I think and Breyer’s was forced to abandon the product. So, I figured I should be able to make this.
Anyhow, I just made it up on the fly. Thankfully, you have a more specific recipe. I hope to try it soon. I like to add some sort of “bits” or “nuggets” either cereal or other that hails from the Cinnamon camp. Got any suggestions?
I think an actual cinnamon roll cut into small pieces would be fabulous and give it some texture. Or cinnamon crackers/cookies brokenn up and mixed in.
Absolutely delicious, made my first batch of cinnamon buns, using a bread dough and topped with icing sugar, the cinnamon paste was the star of the show, thank you Paula,

This is the best way to add filling to cinnamon rolls because it sticks to the dough and when you roll it up it adheres and won’t come spilling out the sides all over your counter as does sprinkling the sugar cinnamon mixture on the buttered surface of the dough does.
How long can you store this in the refrigerator and can it be frozen?
It’ll keep in fridge as long as butter. I make it and keep it for 2-3 weeks at a time. It can be frozen as well.
Couldn”t remember the amounts of butter and sugar of another recipe I usually use. Thought this one tasted better but I always add some nutmeg and a little ginger for a flavor boost. Thank you for this recipe.
Excellent recipe
Tasty
Thank you, this is the exact kind of recipe site there isn’t enough of on the internet. I don’t need a three hour long explanation on your life and some ridiculous story about your recipe before I even get to see the recipe. I can not wait to try this filling of yours, it clearly has the proportions of a true cinnamon lover, also those other recipes recipes listed along side it seem like good uses of cinnamon filling, not just cinnamon buns. I enjoyed your site and will definitely come back and have a look at other recipes, what a refreshing joy this site is.
Thank you so much for the kind words, Anna! I hope you find more recipes you enjoy.
