Cinnamon Roll Brunch Bake

Jennifer Allen
Cinnamon Roll Brunch Bake is one of those dishes that fills the kitchen with a smell so good, you’ll have everyone hovering before it even hits the table. It’s rich, cozy, and just the right mix of sweet rolls baked into a creamy custard. Making it in a braiser gives it a lovely golden crust while keeping the center soft and tender.
