Background: These Bloody Guts Cinnamon Rolls are pretty realistic. However, they taste amazing and only require a few ingredients. It’s perfect for the Halloween season and the kiddos have been begging me to make them. They are great for a spooky meal or as a weekend surprise for the family. To get the red color, we add strawberry jam to the cinnamon roll glaze. It gives these Bloody Guts Cinnamon Rolls an awesome flavor that is a good change up from the typical taste. I used two cans of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls. You can choose your favorite ones, just make sure the cinnamon rolls can be unraveled.

  1. Lightly grease a small cookie sheet with butter. Unravel or uncoil the cinnamon rolls before winding them back and forth on the cookie sheet, forming “guts”. Continue with the remaining cinnamon rolls.
  2. Bake according to the directions on the cinnamon roll package.
  3. Remove from oven. Pour cinnamon roll glazes into a small mixing bowl. Add strawberry jam or jelly until you get your desired red color. Pour the glaze over the cinnamon rolls. Use a spoon to evenly coat the cinnamon rolls, using it to separate the “guts” so the icing can seep in between them.
  4. Serve warm and enjoy!
