# What You'll Need:

→ Casserole Base

01 - 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It feels like dessert and breakfast hugged, and you get to be the hero who brought them together.
  • The recipe is easy enough for impromptu gatherings but tastes like you planned it for days.
02 -
  • If you rush and don't drain the peaches really well, the middle turns soggy instead of plush.
  • Melted butter drizzled on top is more than decoration — it actually helps the cinnamon rolls bake through and caramelize.
03 -
  • If you toast the pecans before sprinkling, that extra crunch is worth the little bit of effort.
  • Gently press the top layer of cinnamon rolls down into the peaches before baking for the most luscious pockets of flavor.
