Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups half-and-half
4 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1-1/2 lbs store-bought, already baked cinnamon rolls, cut into 2" pieces
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and chopped into 1" pieces
4 oz cream cheese, cut into 1/2" pieces
Maple syrup, for drizzling

Steps:

Move an oven rack to the bottom of the oven and preheat to 300°F. Grease a 9" x 13" baking dish. Set aside. Whisk together the half-and-half, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated. Add the cinnamon rolls, apples, and cream cheese and gently toss until the custard completely coats all of the cinnamon-roll pieces and all of the liquid is absorbed. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake until the custard is set and the top is lightly browned, about 60-70 minutes. Cut into portions and drizzle maple syrup on top of each serving.
