I could’ve just opened a few tubes of cinnamon rolls and baked them for my wife to take into the office to treat her co-workers. But that’s just not me. Nothing wrong with a tube of cinnamon rolls (as I’m about to prove). They just need a little help to be even more awesome and this cinnamon French toast bake is definitely more awesome. Fluffy rolls in a cinnamon egg maple French toast batter, covered with chopped pecans, maple syrup and icing. It’s enough to make the other cinnamon rolls sitting in tubes jealous.

There’s nothing I would change about this recipe. Sure this cinnamon French toast bake isn’t light. It’s not low on calories. But it’s mighty good. And since the rolls are cut into small pieces before you bake them you can easily cut and serve smaller portions. If you want to that is.

I use pecans from my dad’s nut trees when I make this recipe and any other that calls for pecans. Sorry, I don’t share since they are very near and dear to me. You’ll have to settle for store-bought pecans (unless you know someone with pecan trees too)!
