Overnight Cinnamon Roll Casserole Easy and Tasty Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cans refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon nutmeg
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 0.5 cup raisins (optional)
- to taste Fresh berries for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
- Open the cans of cinnamon rolls and cut each roll into quarters.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar until well combined.
- Add the quartered cinnamon roll pieces to the bowl, along with the optional nuts and raisins if using. Gently fold until all pieces are coated in the egg mixture.
- Pour the entire mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or at least for 4 hours) to allow the flavors to meld.
- In the morning, remove the casserole from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is puffed and golden brown on top.
- While the casserole is baking, warm the icing that came with the cinnamon rolls in the microwave for about 10 seconds to make it easier to drizzle.
- Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and drizzle the warmed icing over the top.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh berries if desired.
