Cinnamon French Toast Bake
Author: Altered from Pillsbury
Ingredients
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 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 chopped pecans
- ¾ cup maple syrup
- Garnish:
- Icing from cinnamon rolls
- powdered sugar
- maple syrup, if desired
Instructions
- Melt butter and pour on ungreased 13×9 inch glass dish. Separate cans of dough into 16 rolls reserving the icing for later use. Cut each roll into 8 pieces and add to buttered baking dish.
- Beat eggs in medium bowl. Add cream, cinnamon and vanilla and beat until well blended. Pour over cut pieces of cinnamon roll pieces.
- Sprinkle with pecans and drizzle ¾ cup syrup over the top. Bake at 375 for 20 to 28 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 15 minutes.
- Remove the covers from icing and microwave on medium or 50% power for 10 to 15 seconds. (Should be thin enough to drizzle.) Drizzle icing over the top. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with syrup if desired. Yum!
Notes:
- We did not put in the chopped pecans but I think it would be an excellent addition.
- We did not use the powdered sugar or the maple syrup as garnishes. We felt it was sweet enough with the maple syrup in the casserole.
