How to Make Cinnamon Roll French Toast Casserole
Making this cinnamon roll french toast bake is truly as simple as placing the premade cinnamon rolls in a baking dish and pouring your egg mixture over top. I use the icing that comes in the can of cinnamon rolls on top and sprinkle with toasted pecans once it’s done. That’s it! I told you this was an easy recipe!
If you prefer a more traditional Cinnamon Roll Casserole approach, you can chop up the premade rolls into cubes before placing in the pan. Easy peasy!

I too used the grands biscuits, rolled them in cinnamon and sugar as if making monkey bread. Delicious!
Thanks for sharing, Karen!
The Super Easy Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bake is a big hit!! Thanks for this easy to make recipe.
Thanks!
Will definitely make this again for my family.
Glad you liked it Sherri!
I made this during Christmas while we were snowed in our cabin and it was a HIT! My kids just loved it. Delicious, gooey, and packed full of cinnamon. I was nervous about using syrup since I was using the icing too but it’s definitely a finishing touch to the French toast flavor. I’ve made it 3 times since and it never disappoints. I will make it again and again and AGAIN!
So glad everyone loved it! It’s a favorite around here too.
If you just use the 8 roll, do you still use the same amount of eggs?
These look amazing and I am going to try them. I am writing a cookbook for my family. May I have permission to use this recipe? Thank you.
I made this for Christmas morning last year and it was a big hit!
Yay! love that
How long do you warm the icing for?
My kids are helping me make this today! They are so excited. Thanks for another delicious, easy recipe.
Yay! HI FRIEND! Hope you have a fab thanksgiving. we miss the sparks!
