How To Make cinnamon roll french toast

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Melt the butter and pour into the bottom of a 9 x 13 glass baking dish.
  • Step 2
    Open the cans of cinnamon rolls and separate into individual rolls. Cut each of the rolls into 6 pieces.
  • Step 3
    Place them into the baking dish on top of the butter, distributing the pieces evenly.
  • Step 4
    Beat the eggs with a whisk. Add the cream, cinnamon, and vanilla; whisk until well blended.
  • Step 5
    Pour the egg mixture over the cinnamon roll pieces and then sprinkle with the pecans. ( I sprinkle half of the nuts on the cinnamon roll, then the rest on top. )
  • Step 6
    Drizzle the maple syrup over the top.
  • Step 7
    Place in the preheated oven, uncovered. Bake for 24 to 28 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Step 8
    Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes. While the French toast is cooling, if need be microwave the icing provided with the rolls for a few seconds or until it is a drizzling consistency.
  • Step 9
    Drizzle the icing over the French toast and then sprinkle with powdered sugar. ( totally optional )
  • Step 10
    Serve by spooning the syrup from the bottom of the pan over the cinnamon rolls. Serve with additional syrup.
