  1. This recipe sounds so good! I have a loaf of Thomas cinnamon bread. Could I use that? If so, would I need to do anything different with the cinnamon/ sugar mixture?

    1. Hi Renee! You could definitely use the cinnamon bread if it’s soft enough to roll flat and then roll up tightly without it falling apart. Any soft bread works great and the added cinnamon of the cinnamon bread would be so wonderful. I hope they turn out great! Enjoy!

  2. these are amazing, the first time I messed up the measurements but I made them today and they are diff a fan favorite!

    1. Hi, Jasmine! I suppose that depends on how many people will be enjoying it and whether or not there will be other foods. Each recipe makes 8 roll ups. If you plan on serving other substantial food, 1-2 roll ups per person should be enough. Hope this helps!
