Costco is selling its famous Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread in the bakery and it is a hard treat to resist!
My wife and I have an understanding that we will buy one, and only one, pan of these per year. This arrangement is pretty nice as we never have to have a discussion about whether the Cinnamon Bread will end up in our cart. Additionally, the one time we do purchase the bread, we always make sure to enjoy every single bite since it will be a full year before we enjoy it again!
There are 12 pieces of cinnamon rolls per tray and they are delicious straight from the pan bet even better when heated through.
This review will cover everything you need to know about the pull apart bread including how to heat, what the bread tastes like, calories and price.
How to Heat the Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread
Here is a Pro Tip for you. If you like your rolls less sweet than add some butter to the top of the bread before heating. When the butter melts it will cut through some of the sweetness from the frosting.
If you want to heat up the entire tray at once then here are the instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350F
- Remove the plastic lid from the pan
- Place the pan on a baking sheet
- Place the baking sheet on the center rack of the oven
- Bake for 15 minutes until heated through
If you want to heat a single piece of the bread then here are the instruction:
- Open the tray and pull apart one of the rolls
- Place the roll in a microwave safe plate/bowl
- Not Optional: Lick the icing off your fingers
- Place the bowl in the microwave and heat on High for 30 seconds
Flavor
The dough is made from flour, butter and sugar along with cinnamon and brown sugar. This creates a dough that is rich, sweet and just slightly savory. The texture of the bread is best described as “pillowy”.
The bread is covered with a cream cheese icing that is melt in your mouth delicious.
When we checked the Facebook groups for Costco Fanatics there was a fun debate as to whether these were better than Cinnabon rolls or not. That should give you a decent idea about how tasty the bread is!
Pair this bread with a hot cup of coffee and your morning will be off to a perfect start!
If you are overly sensitive to sweet foods then you might want to try the Butter Cinnamon Loaves from Costco instead of these rolls.
