Growing up, every Sunday my mom would throw a tube of cinnamon rolls in the oven while we all rushed to get ready for church. While they were not homemade by any means, it always felt like a special treat. These days, as a mother rushing around on Sunday mornings myself, I can’t imagine getting the rolls in a pan, in the oven and perfectly baked–not burned –before we head out the door. Yep, we are more of a granola bar as we head out the door kind of family.

So when I saw this recipe for Crock Pot Cinnamon Roll Casserole, it brought back all kinds of memories because it too used those cinnamon rolls my mom would make each week. So I decided to give it a try when we had a lazy morning at home.

This Cinnamon Roll Casserole definitely didn’t disappoint! The hubs and I both thought it tasted a lot like a yummy flan on the bottom with a delicious layer of cinnamon rolls on top. Definitely a keeper!

Notes on Cinnamon Roll Casserole

  • We found this recipe in Gooseberry Patch’s Slow-Cooker Christmas Favorites.
  • I love the non-stick surface of this slow cooker  for recipes like this, however, any 5-6qt slow cooker will work just fine.
  • It is highly recommended you first try this recipe when you are able to keep a close eye on it. Every slow cooker cooks differently, so the times listed are just a guide.
  • Additionally, make sure that your first layer of rolls cover the entire bottom of your pan so your egg mixture can cook into the rolls, rather than below them.
  • For more tips on making successful breakfast slow cooker recipes, please see our tip series. 
  • See the video in this post for an updated twist on this recipe: Crock Pot Cinnamon Roll French Toast.
  • Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
  • Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.

As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

    Just want clarity on a couple of things, I’m guessing “whipping cream” is the same as heavy cream? And is the maple syrup the same kind of maple syrup you put on pancakes? Thank you!

    • lynda says

      November 5, 2014 at 10:14 pm

      Yes, heavy cream and whipping cream are basically the same thing. you can use either.

    • Cris says

      Hi Keisha-
      Yes, heavy cream will work 🙂 And as for they syrup, if you go to the syrup aisle you will find bottles that say “Pure Maple Syrup”.

    Do you think i could make it the night before and put in fridge. Then cook it in the morning so i wouldnt have to get up so early.

    • Cris says

      November 5, 2014 at 7:28 am

      I’m not sure. I’ve never tried that before . I’d be a little concerned about how it would hold up.

  4. Holly Shock says

    October 30, 2014 at 2:45 am

    I was curious if the top cinnamon rolls come out as gooey as the bottom I assume would? With all of the wet ingredients only going over one layer, just makes me think the top ones would be a lot more dry than the others.TIA! 🙂

      Hi Holly-

      It is a layered casserole, so the bottom layer has a flan like consistency and the top layer is a layer of cinnamon rolls. You can certainly try pouring it over top of everything (I have not tried that) but I would assume the majority of the wet ingredients will settle on the bottom anyhow. Either way, I hope you enjoy!

    October 26, 2014 at 8:43 am

    Ok here it goes everything is in the crock pot. I am using a 4qt pot so I’m shooting for another 30-45 mins longer. I can’t wait until everyone wakes up to the smell of this and pumpkin spice coffee.

    • Cris says

      November 5, 2014 at 7:29 am

      Hope you enjoyed it!

    I’m going to make this in the morning, it looks so good. I have a question though, I thought when the recipe called for maple syrup, you was referring to pancake syrup. Do you put in maple extract, is that what you mean? Please help!!! I so want to make this!! Thank you so much for the delicious recipe!!!

    • Linda says

      November 6, 2014 at 8:25 pm

      You can buy real maple syrup. It’s near the pancake syrup.

    • Cynthia Gae says

      November 6, 2014 at 10:32 pm

      You can make your maple syrup also. 1 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup water. bring mixture to a boil turn down to a simmer for 15 min. Do not let it boil again. Add maple extract flavoring. I use two tablespoons. Now you have very good tasting maple syrup.

      Hi Ronda! Hope you got my email. Like Linda mentioned, you can find it in the same aisle as the pancake syrup. Enjoy!

    Have you put it together the night before?

  8. amj says

      Hi amj- I have not. I don’t think I would recommend it. I’m not sure how the rolls would do.

  9. Lucia Verardo says

    October 25, 2014 at 9:07 am

    Wondering if there is a homemade recipe to use in the crock pot instead of buying the tubes?

    • Cris says

      Hi Lucia-
      I have not made it that way. I’m sure there is a recipe like that out there somewhere. Good luck!

  10. Katherine says

    October 24, 2014 at 5:03 pm

    this sounds really good as I love cinnamon rolls. Do the eggs cook or are they going to be running on the bottom? Can you add peacans to this? Thank you

    • Cris says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:27 pm

      Yes, the eggs cook up like they do in a normal casserole. Nuts would be a great addition! Enjoy!!

  11. Bev says

    October 24, 2014 at 2:48 pm

    These sound so good. I am going to take them as a treat for my next Bible Study. It is in the morning so we usually enjoy a light breakfast. Thank you so much for the recipe

    • Cris says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:34 pm

    this looks good and i really want to try it but i dont like maple syrup. do u think i can use honey or pancake syrup? thanks

    • Cris says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:36 pm

      I have never tried it with pancake syrup, but if that is your preference, give it a try and let me know how it goes 😉

    Can I leave nutmeg out ? My granddaughter has a nut allergy . Is there something you would substitute for the. Nutmeg ?

    • Lorraine M. Urbano says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:00 pm

      Nutmeg is not a tree nut and therefore should be of no concern to someone who has typical nut allergies. Nutmeg is actually more of a seed.

      “Nutmeg is obtained from the seeds of the tropical tree species Myristica fragrans. It is generally safe for an individual with a tree nut allergy.”

    • Cris says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:36 pm

      Feel free to leave it out if it is of concern. Enjoy!

    These look and sound incredible! I’m going to make them this weekend and can’t wait to see what my family thinks too!

    What size crockpot do you recommend?

    • Cris says

      October 21, 2014 at 9:14 pm

      I used a 6 qt crock… if you use a smaller one, you might just need to increase the cooking time.

  16. Abby says

    October 21, 2014 at 5:18 pm

    Would it be possible to substitute the cream for almond milk?

    • Cris says

      October 21, 2014 at 5:41 pm

      I have never tried it, so I can’t recommend it…

  17. Baylee says

    October 21, 2014 at 1:55 pm

    Do you stir throughout or just leave it sit for the 2 1/2 hours? Also – what setting should I have my crock pot? High? Medium? Low?

    Thank you. : )

    • Cris says

      October 21, 2014 at 1:58 pm

      Do not stir. Cook on low until set. Enjoy!

  18. Holly says

    October 20, 2014 at 8:48 pm

    Made these tonight..they are very good. Think I cooked a little too long cause they were not as gooey as I hoped. Will definitely make again.

    • Cris says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:25 pm

      So glad you liked them! Let me know how they turn out the second time!

    I am CRAZY wild about this recipe and can’t wait to try it on my family for the holidays. We always do brunch. =) Thanks a million for sharing at our Weekend Potluck party…and for linking back. Have a super duper week ahead.

    • Cris says

      October 24, 2014 at 7:24 pm

      Thanks so much Marsha!! Enjoy!!

  20. Abi says

    October 18, 2014 at 8:31 am

    I was wondering if the eggs are necessary. Does it cook through. And is it like scrambled eggs?

    • Cris says

      October 18, 2014 at 9:20 am

      You could certainly just make the cinnamon rolls but that changes it from a casserole. The texture and taste of the bottom layer reminded us more of flan than anything else. Most definitely not scrambled eggs. Enjoy!

  21. Kristen says

    October 16, 2014 at 10:21 pm

    This recipe looks absolutely amazing!!! I wish I could make this tomorrow morning! Might have to try them this weekend.

  22. Rhonda Gardner says

    October 15, 2014 at 6:46 pm

    This recipe looks DELISH! Will have to try it soon!

    I have a question though……….would it be possible to cook at turkey breast in the crock pot?? Curious as to what you think about that and how would you do it? Thanks so much for all the great recipes:)))
