Description
A delightful combination of pumpkin and cinnamon rolls baked into a casserole for a delicious breakfast surprise.
Ingredients
Scale
- two 8-count tubes refrigerated cinnamon roll dough, with icing
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 2 tablespoons cream or milk
- vanilla ice cream or whipped topping, optional for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Line a 9×9-inch pan with foil and spray with cooking spray; set aside.
- Cut the cinnamon roll dough into 3 even strips, then cut those strips into 3 pieces, making 9 pieces total per cinnamon roll. Scatter in prepared pan, separating the pieces from one another because they stick together if you slice them in stacks; set pan and the icing from the packaging aside.
- To a medium bowl, add the eggs, pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup milk, brown sugar, granulated sugar, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and whisk until smooth.
- Evenly pour the mixture over the cinnamon rolls.
- Evenly drizzle the icing. If the icing is cold, heating it in the microwave for 10 seconds will make drizzling easier.
- Place pan on a baking sheet (insurance against overflow and highly recommended) and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the top is set in the center and lightly golden brown. Place pan on a wire rack to cool momentarily while you make the frosting.
- To a medium bowl, add the confectioners’ sugar, 2 tablespoons cream or milk, and whisk to combine until smooth.
- Evenly drizzle the frosting over the rolls and optionally serve with ice cream or whipped topping. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Make sure to use pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling for the right taste.
- If the icing is too thick, you can heat it in the microwave for easier drizzling.
- This dish is great for serving at breakfast gatherings or holiday brunches.
