Cinnamon Roll Casserole Recipe
As I said, I LOVE cinnamon. Whether it’s cinnamon bread, my easy biscuit cinnamon rolls or these crazy-good pumpkin cinnamon rolls, I could eat cinnamon desserts every single day. I’ve even tried to find ways to incorporate cinnamon into my favorite savory dishes, like these incredible cinnamon glazed carrots!
Anyway, you get the idea. It’s really no wonder that this cinnamon roll casserole is one of my favorite special occasion breakfast recipes. It’s perfect for a Saturday morning after a busy week of work and school, or as a special birthday breakfast.
Not that you have to save it for a special occasion by any means! You have my permission to make this amazing cinnamon roll casserole recipe on a random Tuesday, FOR DINNER. Fry some bacon and eggs to go along with it and call it a day.
Hmm… now there’s an idea. Maybe I’ll do it, too!
I have to admit that I love utilizing refrigerated cinnamon rolls and crescent rolls to create tasty dessert recipes. They are just so full of flavor and really begging to be experimented with.
They definitely work well in this yummy cinnamon roll casserole, that’s for sure.
If you want to add a bit of crunch, you can top this breakfast casserole with some chopped pecans or walnuts!

Cinnamon Roll Casserole Recipe
This sweet cinnamon roll casserole recipe is easy to whip-up with refrigerated cinnamon rolls and a few simple ingredients.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 2 cans (12.4 oz each) Pillsbury refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
- 5 eggs
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 cup maple syrup
Topping
- Icing from cinnamon rolls
- Powdered sugar
- ½ cup maple syrup
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375°F. Pour melted butter into an ungreased 13 x 9 glass baking dish. Open your cinnamon rolls and separate both cans of dough into 16 rolls. Save your icing for later! Cut each of the cinnamon rolls into 8 pieces and arrange in the baking dish evenly.
- In medium bowl, beat eggs, cream, cinnamon and vanilla combined. Pour this over the cinnamon roll pieces, then drizzle with 1 cup maple syrup.
- Bake for 20-28 minutes or until top is golden brown. If you notice the top of your casserole getting too brown, too quickly, you can cover with foil for the final minutes of baking. Cool 15 minutes. Meanwhile, remove covers from icing; microwave on 10 to 15 seconds or until thin enough to drizzle.
- Drizzle the supplied icing over top of your casserole and spoon additional maple syrup over casserole. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, serve and enjoy!

Mistakenly grabbed condensed milk instead of whipping cream… great mistake! Was so good!
I’m going to make this in a few days as my kids LOVE cinnamon rolls and this looks amazing! But I think you should change the name to CINNAMON CASSE-ROLL. :)
Looks like the perfect breakfast!
This looks so yummy. I saved the recipe to make next weekend!
