Cinnamon rolls have taken the social media world by storm, and for good reason. They are being made with only a few simple ingredients for a delicious, homemade taste. These flavorful Orange Cinnamon Rolls are made using store-bought cinnamon rolls, orange juice, orange zest and La Lechera Sweetened Condensed Milk.

The condensed milk makes these cinnamon rolls extra moist and fluffy, and the orange juice and zest give them so much fantastic flavor. They are also super quick and easy to make, which is always a bonus.

These cinnamon rolls are best served fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you want to reheat them, just pop them in the microwave for a few seconds.

Yes, they also can be frozen. I would recommend freezing them without the frosting and then thawing them and adding the frosting when you’re ready to eat them.
