How to Make Cinnamon Rolls in an Electric Pressure Cooker
Aunt Lou here.
We are getting ready to go on vacation. Part of our vacation we will have an oven and part we won’t. So, I thought I would try out making our favorite tube of cinnamon rolls in my electric pressure cooker to see if that would be a good option while we are vacationing…and, yes, yes it is! They were perfect! We have also heard from a lot of our readers about how recipes like this help when you are going through a kitchen remodel or when your oven just decides to die on you! Whatever your reason, you are going to love this yummy breakfast!

Great job making this recipe your own! I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
I found this just in time, I am about to go over the road with my husband and all we are going to have is an instant pot and a road pro lunch box over to do all of our cooking with. We like to have cinnamon rolls about once a month or so for something a bit different and this is perfect.
That’s awesome Leigh! I hope you and your husband have a wonderful time and safe travels!
I never would have thought you could make cinnamon rolls in the instant pot! So yummy!
So glad you enjoyed it, Beryl!
What can I use instead of a spring form pan? Thanks!
Hi Nathalie!
If you have a small round cake pan, that should work as well. Enjoy!

Hi Cris & Mike , I live alone and love to cook.My question is how do I change the serving size from 4 to 1or2? I enjoy most of your recipes. Thank you Gaylen
Hi Gaylen!
You can change the serving size by clicking on the blue number in the recipe card on each post. It will change the ingredients to meet your needs. However, keep in mind, it cannot change pot size or cooking times and both of those are impacted when you use less ingredients. Unfortunately, it will likely take a lot of trial and error to get things just right, but my best advice would be to start with using small pots (3 qt Instant Pot, 2 qt Crock Pot, etc.) if you want to regularly cook with less ingredients. Hope that helps!
