“Hewn,
Hewn, Evanston & Winnetka

Artisan Classics Set the Cinnamon Stage
Trust Hewn (Evanston & Winnetka) to craft a from-scratch classic with their Cinnamon Brioche using locally-sourced, stone-milled, organic flour with cinnamon from local spice merchants. Small batch bakers at Kneads & Wants Artisan Bakery and Cafe (Skokie) also do it all from scratch including their entry of buttery Sticky Buns with rich caramel and crunchy pecans. The Cinnamon Rolls at Schlegl's Bakery & Cafe (Lincolnwood) may not have dazzling decorations like their legendary cakes, cupcakes and cookies, but they hold their own alongside the Cinnamon Donut, Apple Cinnamon Raison Coffee Cake, and Cinnamon Twist Pastry.
 

“Spirit
Spirit Elephant, Winnetka

Local Restaurants Bake with Abundance
Warm up with Guildhall’s (Glencoe) signature sweet, the Classic Cinnamon Roll, as it towers over their house-baked fresh donuts. Award-winning Spirit Elephant (Winnetka) offers a plant-based, organic take on mammoth house-made Cinnamon Rolls during weekend brunch (lunch and dinner, too!). Indulge in Great Harvest Bread (Evanston) Cinnamon Rolls covered in addictive cream cheese frosting. Made from a fluffy whole wheat-kissed dough, then rolled in brown sugar, butter, cinnamon — and more cinnamon — pair one with a cup of coffee or buy a pack be a hero at home. 
 

“Bennison's
Bennison's Bakery, Evanston

Bakery and Brunch Bonanza
Don’t let the traditional Jewish fare tempt you from your mission: Kaufman’s Bagel and Delicatessen (Skokie) makes their mark in this category with Cinnamon Raisin Rolled Bread and a Cinnamon Raisin Bagel. Another true North Shore Institution, Bennison’s Bakery (Evanston) will make you a hit at the office when you order up boxes of Cinnamon Rolls — soft sweet dough filled with cinnamon, sugar, drizzled with warm icing. Hangar Two by Tangled Roots Brewing Co. (Glenview) impresses with their brunch menu starring Stuffed Brioche French Toast with berries and addictive maple cinnamon cream cheese.
 

“EvaDean's
EvaDean's Bakery & Cafe, Wilmette

Perfect Day for Cinnamon at the Café
Add a Cinnamon Roll as a side at Rise n Dine Breakfast & Lunch Restaurant (Wheeling) or make the Cinnamon Apple Waffle, Crepe or French Toast your comfort food fare. At EvaDean’s Bakery and Café (Wilmette), enjoy Warm & Gooey Cinnamon Rolls, soft baked and covered with cream cheese icing, in their dining room or take some away (with optional Cinnamon Raisin Bread or Cinnamon Oatmeal Scone). Will’s Place (Skokie) may shape-shift from coffee shop in the morning to sandwich shop in the afternoon but watch for their freshly-baked Walnut Cinnamon Rolls as they rotate specials in the pastry case.
