  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Topping

  • Cream cheese frosting from cinnamon rolls

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crock Pot: Lightly spray the slow cooker insert with non-stick spray or use a crock pot liner to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Add Cinnamon Rolls: Place the quartered cinnamon rolls evenly along the bottom of the slow cooker.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until well combined to create the custard mixture.
  4. Combine: Pour the custard mixture evenly over the cinnamon rolls in the crock pot, ensuring all pieces are soaked.
  5. Cook: Cover and cook on low heat for 3 hours or until the cinnamon rolls are cooked through and tender.
  6. Serve: Drizzle the cream cheese frosting from the cinnamon rolls over the casserole while warm, and serve immediately for a gooey and flavorful breakfast dessert.

Notes

  • You can use any brand of cinnamon rolls, but pre-made tubes work best for convenience.
  • Cooking times may vary based on your crock pot model; check doneness by ensuring the casserole is set and no longer doughy.
  • For an extra touch, sprinkle chopped nuts or raisins over the batter before cooking.
  • This casserole can be kept warm in the slow cooker on the ‘warm’ setting for up to 1 hour before serving.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated in the microwave.
