Now that you have your ingredients ready, it’s time to get cooking. Follow these simple steps to create your Homemade Cinnamon Roll Casserole:
- Heat your oven to 375°F. Then, pour the melted butter into an ungreased 13×9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish.
- Separate both cans of dough into 16 rolls. Be sure to set the icing aside. Cut each roll into 8 pieces and place the pieces over the butter in the dish.
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. Then, beat in the cream, cinnamon, and vanilla until well blended. Gently pour this mixture over the roll pieces.
- Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top and drizzle with 1/4 cup of syrup.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 28 minutes or until it turns golden brown. Allow it to cool for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, remove the covers from the icing and microwave on Medium (50%) for 10 to 15 seconds or until it’s thin enough to drizzle.
- Drizzle the icing over the top of your casserole. If desired, you can also spoon syrup over individual servings.
