Course: Breakfast

Cuisine: American

Servings:

24.8 oz. cinnamon rolls two 12.4 oz cans original cinnamon rolls with icing (I suggest Pillsbury brand)
½ cup melted salted butter heat the butter to just melted, don't make overly hot.
4 large eggs
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
½ tsp. ground nutmeg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
½ cup heavy cream

Spray baking spray in the liner of the slow cooker. Set aside.
Open the cinnamon roll cans. Separate all the cinnamon rolls.
Cut each roll in quarters. You should have 64 pieces of cinnamon rolls.
Spread evenly the cut cinnamon rolls into the slow cooker liner.
Pour the cooled butter over the cinnamon rolls. Set aside.
In a medium size mixing bowl, add the eggs, brown sugar, whisk until combined.
Add the ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, vanilla extra. Mix until all ingredients are incorporated.
Add the heavy cream and mix well.
Pour the egg mixture over the cinnamon rolls.
Cover and cook on low for 3.5 - 4 hours. Every slow cooker cooks differently, so check at the 3.5 hour mark.
Serve and Enjoy!

To store: Refrigerate cinnamon rolls in an airtight container for up to 3 days - and that's if they last that long.
You can use a pair of kitchen scissors or a pizza cutter to cut the cinnamon rolls quickly.
You can make the casserole the night before and cook it in the morning. Though, let your slow cooker sit on the counter for 15 minutes, doing this should prevent the ceramic insert from cracking when the heat is turned on.
You can use half and half or whole milk instead of heavy cream.
Raisins are a great addition to this dish, sprinkle a 1/4 cup over the uncooked cinnamon rolls before adding other ingredients.

My Serving Suggestions:

This cinnamon roll casserole is amazing served as is. Simply scoop out a serving and enjoy!
If you'd like to add some additional toppings, consider an extra dash of ground cinnamon, a drizzle of maple syrup, diced apples, and/or a shake of powdered sugar.
When it comes to serving it with something cool, go for a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some whipped cream.
