If you read my Spartans vs Badgers post this casserole is why I was up at 3:30 AM on Saturday morning.
Lets break down the math:
Casserole takes 3 hrs to cook
Tailgate opened at 7 AM
Need to leave the house by 6 AM
= up at 3:30 AM to throw ingredients into Crockpot to start cooking
I found this recipe on Pintrest to satisfy my husbands sweet tooth for the morning tailgate.
Crockpot Cinnamon Roll Casserole
Ingredients
2 (12-ounce) tubes refrigerated cinnamon rolls, cut into quarters
4 eggs
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
1. Spray the crockpot generously with cooking spray
2. Cut cinnamon rolls into bite size pieces
3. Put half of the cut cinnamon rolls in a single layer on the bottom of the crockpot
4. Whisk together eggs, heavy whipping cream, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon
5. Pour egg and heavy cream mixture over the first cinnamon roll layer in the crockpot.
6. Dollop first icing packet over crockpot contents
7. Spread the remaining cut cinnamon rolls on top of the first layer and egg mixture and top with second packet of icing
8. Cook on Low for 2 1/2 to 3 hours until sides are golden and the middle is cooked
This recipe would be great for holiday mornings as well and very easy to throw together on minimal ingredients.
