Recipe Box, Cinnamon Roll & Sausage Breakfast Pudding
A different twist on traditional breakfast casserole, this one uses cinnamon rolls~
My kitchen can be a busy place…
There’s usually several things going on
HH was peeling shrimp for our favorite Coconut Fried Shrimp while HHjr was setting up the fryer outside
I was prepping a breakfast casserole for the next morning
and baking cinnamon rolls
CC was getting a little exercise
Now this is not exactly a gourmet recipe, but it can be put together in the midst of chaos
Quarter the iced cinnamon rolls
Put half of them in a greased baking dish and top with cooked crumbled sausage
Top with remaining cinnamon roll quarters
Beat the eggs and milk and pour over cinnamon rolls and sausage in the pan
Push roll pieces down to submerge, cover and refrigerate overnight
Before baking, pour half and half over the top, to give it extra moisture
Bake at 350 until eggs are set and casserole is golden, about 40 minutes
Let people serve themselves whenever they’re ready~
It holds well so you can do some chores first
The boys were busy washing the boat and watching the dog on the paddle board go by
But CC dug right in!
Cinnamon Roll and Sausage Breakfast Pudding
Ingredients
- 1 can Pillsbury cinnamon rolls [I used reduced fat]
- 8 oz. maple breakfast sausage
- 5-6 eggs beaten
- 1 1/2 cups 2% milk
- 1/4 cup half and half
- salt
Instructions
- Bake cinnamon rolls according to directions. Ice rolls and let cool.
- Cut rolls into quarters.
- Brown sausage in skillet and drain.
- Place 1/2 of cinnamon roll pieces into a greased baking dish. Top with sausage. Top with remaining rolls.
- Combine eggs with milk and season with salt. Pour over rolls. Push roll pieces down to submerge. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Before baking pour cream over top of casserole. Bake uncovered at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until eggs are set and dish is golden.
Notes
You’ll be surprised, the sweetness is very subtle. You can always use bakery or deli cinnamon rolls to make this even easier and faster!

Reminds me of weekends at our lake place.:-) Looks delicious and sounds like something our family would like.
CC is a sweet helper.
Nice recipes. Thank you and have a great day!
This looks absolutely scrumptious! It will be on my menu the next time I have a house full of teenage boys spending the night. They are always so hungry in the morning!
Look familiar when all of my family is here. I love this recipe and it would be a hit with this group, I must try this.
Hope you are enjoying the beach this weekend…………….
When I saw you were using prepackaged ingredients, I knew this was something I could probably do! I wonder if monkey bread (the frozen kind from Wal-Mart) could be used instead of the Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls? It would be one less step for me which makes it one step more likely I would make it!
This is something that would be a hit at my house, definitely. I am adding the ingredients to the shopping list!
Jenna, you are killing me with this….insert drool marks on my keyboard…pinned! Christine from Little Brags
Jenna, I love the combo of sweet & salty and my hubby loves anything with sausage so I know this would be a hit! We watch the paddle boarders go by here in our cove, but a dog on board would make me do a double take 🙂
These sound easy and delicious, Jenna. It looks like y’all had a great time – and wonderful food!
Congratulations!
Your recipe is featured on Full Plate Thursday this week. Hope you have a great weekend and enjoy your new Red Plate!
