Cinnamon Roll Cake

I found this simple cinnamon roll cake on pinterest and I couldn’t resist not making it. It was soft, delicious and easy to make too! This recipe is a cake version of the popular cinnamon rolls. It does not require proofing, filling and rolling the dough. Instead, the dough (batter) and filling (topping) are incorporated in the pan and then baked. In less than an hour, you will be enjoying a piece of this sweet treat with a cup of your favorite coffee or tea. Enjoy!

Dollops of toppings are added first and then swirled up and down lengthwise.
