Ingredients
2 cans refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
4 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup maple syrup
Instructions
1. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters and spread evenly in the baking dish.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and maple syrup.
4. Pour mixture evenly over the cinnamon rolls and press down lightly. Let it soak for 10 minutes.
5. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until golden and custard is set.
6. Cool for 5 minutes, drizzle icing over top, and serve warm.
Notes
Use full-fat dairy for richer flavor.
Let the casserole sit before baking so rolls absorb the custard.
Add chopped nuts or fruit for a fun twist.
