Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Make sure to chop the cinnamon rolls into even pieces so they bake uniformly.
  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts if you want some extra crunch.
  • Want to make it even sweeter? Drizzle the baked casserole with icing or maple syrup before serving.
  • If you prefer a softer texture, cover the casserole with foil for the first 30 minutes of baking, then uncover to finish.
