Can I use homemade cinnamon rolls instead of canned?

Absolutely! Just make sure they’re cut into small pieces and slightly chilled before adding them to the crockpot to maintain their shape.

How can I make it less sweet?

You can cut the brown sugar to 1/3 cup or skip the glaze—though honestly, the sweetness is part of its charm.

Can I double this recipe?

Yes! Just use a larger crockpot or cook in batches. Keep an eye on the cook time; it may need an extra 30–45 minutes.

What’s the best way to serve it?

Warm, with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. It’s also divine with a hot cup of coffee on a lazy morning.

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Spray the inside of your crockpot with non-stick cooking spray.
Open the can of cinnamon rolls and separate them. Cut each roll into quarters.
Place the cinnamon roll pieces into the crockpot.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Pour this mixture evenly over the cinnamon roll pieces.
Drizzle the heavy cream over the top.
Cover and cook on LOW for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the cinnamon rolls are cooked through and the cake is gooey.
Remove the lid and let the cake cool for a few minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Drizzle the glaze over the cake before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy that gooey, sweet perfection!

Notes

For extra flavor, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the top before cooking.
Add a few apple slices or a spoonful of pumpkin puree for a fun fall twist.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20–30 seconds for that fresh-from-the-crockpot texture.
Delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce!
