Ingredients
Canned store-bought cinnamon rolls
Sliced sandwich bread (optional alternative to cinnamon rolls)
Eggs
Milk (whole milk preferred, or alternative types)
Vanilla extract
Ground cinnamon
Maple syrup
Butter or cooking spray (for greasing)
Reserved icing packet (from cinnamon roll package)
Optional toppings: fresh fruit, whipped cream, Nutella, peanut butter
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish with melted butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3. Open the canned cinnamon rolls and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
4. Arrange the cinnamon roll pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
5. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and maple syrup to create the cinnamon custard.
6. Pour the cinnamon custard mixture evenly over the cinnamon roll pieces, ensuring each piece is well coated.
7. Bake in the oven for approximately 25 minutes until the top is golden brown and set.
8. Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
9. Drizzle the cinnamon roll icing (reserved icing packet) over the baked casserole for added sweetness. You can mix the icing with a little maple syrup and warm water to achieve a syrup-like consistency if desired.
10. Serve warm and garnish with toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a drizzle of Nutella for added flavor.
Notes
1. Add a pinch of nutmeg or citrus zest to the custard for a unique flavor twist.
2. Top with crushed nuts or granola before baking for an added layer of crunch.
3. Serve with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a drizzle of maple syrup for a delicious finishing touch.
