Small but mighty, these Mini Tortilla Cinnamon Buns are packed with cinnamon flavour. Dempster’s® Original Large Tortillas are prepared with brown sugar, pecans and cinnamon for a sweet, spicy and slightly nutty taste. The buns are baked in a muffin tin and then drizzled with icing for a deliciously sweet treat. Serves eight.

  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) unsalted butter, melted
