Early Saturday Mornings. Cinnamon Roll Casserole.

I have times where I need to escape from the world and run away.
The place I always choose to go to is my hometown...Big Bear Lake, CA.
With breakfast food being my favorite thing in the world to make, honestly if I could eat breakfast foods 24/7 I would and be completely content with my life. But sadly I crave everything that is doughy and sweet. Hence where again my sweet tooth comes into play.
I was thinking of how to combine one of my favorite sweet breakfast dishes with a new twist. I found this idea on Pintrest. A cinnamon roll casserole!! Perfect!

Items Used: 2 cans of cinnamon rolls, 4 eggs,1 cup of milk, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 1 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, and of course the cream cheese icing that came with the cinnamon rolls. 

I started by having a heart attack slightly with the can of rolls busting open. Who needs coffee when you have surprise bursts from cinnamon rolls?
I greased a baking pan with olive oil and ripped the cinnamon rolls into bit size pieces and placed them on the bottom of the baking dish. I mixed all the wet ingredients together in a large bowl, whisking them together until all blended perfectly. After I poured the entire mixed over the cinnamon rolls. Looked beautiful and smelt wonderful!!



I placed the baking dish in the oven at 375 degrees and baked it for 45 minutes. The entire house smelt amazing and felt so cozy. Definitely made my mouth water. Once it was done baking, I did not wait a second to pour the melted icing all over the casserole. It melted instantly and bubbled. Delicious!! It was time to dig in a devour.



And of course we had to step outside and get the forest in the background since we felt we made a rustic type of breakfast. Needless to say this did not last long at all. We all dug in and went back for a couple more bites. Absolutely something I will be making again! Side it with eggs, turkey bacon, and some other favorite breakfast foods.
Give this a try if you are wanting something sweet to eat, you will not be disappointed!
