Ingredients
2 cans refrigerated cinnamon rolls
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup maple syrup
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Open the cinnamon roll cans and cut each roll into quarters. Spread evenly in the dish.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.
4. Pour the mixture evenly over the cinnamon roll pieces and let it sit for 5–10 minutes.
5. Bake for 35–40 minutes until golden brown and the center is set.

Notes
This casserole tastes best served warm right out of the oven.
Letting the rolls soak before baking ensures they stay moist and rich.
For added crunch, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts before baking.
