Ingredients
Cinnamon Rolls
Eggs
Milk (whole milk, half-and-half, or milk alternative)
Honey or Maple Syrup
Vanilla Extract
Ground Cinnamon
Ground Nutmeg
Butter or Cooking Spray
Cream Cheese Glaze (optional)
Raisins (optional)
Chopped Nuts (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with melted butter or cooking spray.
2. Bake canned cinnamon rolls according to package instructions if they are unbaked.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg to create the custard mixture.
4. Cut the baked cinnamon rolls into bite-sized pieces and arrange them evenly in the prepared baking dish.
5. Pour the custard mixture over the cinnamon roll pieces, ensuring it fully coats and soaks into them. Press down gently with a spatula if needed.
6. Bake the dish in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes or until the edges pull away from the sides, and the custard is firm and set.
7. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
8. Serve warm, and top with maple syrup, whipped cream, powdered sugar, fresh berries, or a drizzle of cream cheese glaze for added flavor.
Notes
1. Add unique toppings like fresh fruit, cream cheese glaze, or Nutella for a personalized touch to your Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bake.
2. Use day-old cinnamon rolls to better absorb the custard mixture and create a richer texture.
3. Prepare the casserole the night before to save time and bake fresh in the morning for a no-rush breakfast or brunch option.
