Ingredients
For the Muffins:
- 2 packages mini cinnamon rolls (12-ounce packages) or 24 ounces leftover cinnamon rolls
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Toppings:
- 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar or brown sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans, optional
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup milk or half-and-half
Instructions
- Do ahead: Cut and dry out the cinnamon roll pieces on a baking pan in a warm 250 degree oven, for about 20-30 minutes, cool completely.
- Then preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a small saucepan warm the butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of the half-and-half on medium-low, stirring until melted and combined. Then remove from heat allow to cool.
- In another bowl whisk together the eggs, remaining 1/2 cup of half-and-half, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla until well combined. Then whisk in the ingredients from saucepan.
- Butter 12 muffin cups. Divide the cinnamon roll pieces among the muffin cups, piling them high. Pour 1/8 cup of the custard mixture over the cinnamon roll pieces in each muffin cup. Allow it to soak and absorb, add more custard as needed. Make sure the top layer has absorbed the custard too.
- Sprinkle each muffin with pecans and sugar. Bake in the bottom third of oven for 35 minutes. When a knife comes out clean, they are done.
Cup of Yum
To make the glaze:
- Stir milk into powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is the consistency you like. Cool the muffins for 15 minutes. Remove from pan and drizzle with glaze. Serve warm.
Notes
- The density and dryness of your cinnamon roll pieces may effect the amount of custard needed.
