Ingredients
Scale
- Two 8-count tubes refrigerated cinnamon roll dough, with icing
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 2 tablespoons cream or milk
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped topping (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 9×9-inch pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Cut each cinnamon roll into 9 pieces and scatter evenly in the prepared pan. Separate the pieces to avoid clumping.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, brown sugar, granulated sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
- Pour the pumpkin mixture evenly over the cinnamon roll pieces.
- Drizzle the icing from the cinnamon roll tubes over the top. Microwave the icing for 10 seconds if too thick.
- Place the pan on a baking sheet and bake for about 40 minutes or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
- Let the bake cool slightly on a wire rack while preparing the frosting.
- In a bowl, whisk together the confectioners’ sugar and cream or milk until smooth.
- Drizzle the homemade frosting over the warm bake. Serve immediately with optional whipped topping or vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Don’t skip placing the pan on a baking sheet to avoid potential overflow.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently in the microwave.
- Prep the wet mixture the night before for faster assembly in the morning.
- Add chopped nuts or cream cheese for extra flavor and texture.
