Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 (12.4 oz) can refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing, icing reserved
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ⅓ cup lightly packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 9-inch square baking dish. Cut each cinnamon roll into 4 pieces and arrange in the dish, reserving the icing packet.
  2. Whisk eggs, milk, cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
  3. Pour custard over the roll pieces, pressing down gently. Let soak for 10 minutes.
  4. Drizzle melted butter on top. Bake 30-35 minutes until puffed and golden. Cool 5 minutes, drizzle with reserved icing, and serve.

Notes

The center should jiggle only slightly when the dish is shaken; it will continue to set as it rests. Don't be tempted to overbake or the pudding loses its soft, custardy texture.
