Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 12 frozen dinner rolls
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 12 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Thaw Rolls: Thaw frozen dinner rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, covered, at room temperature.
  2. Prepare Pan: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray.
  3. Coat Rolls: Flatten rolls to ¼ inch thick. Mix melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Coat each roll in the mixture and stack them.
  4. Assemble Bread: Place the stacked rolls sideways in the loaf pan. Brush any remaining butter mixture over the top.
  5. Rise: Cover and let rise for about an hour, until almost to the top of the pan.
  6. Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, until browned and cooked through (190°F). Cool completely.
  7. Make Glaze: Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a bowl. Adjust milk for desired consistency.
  8. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle glaze over the cooled bread and serve.

Notes

  • Ensure the rolls are fully thawed for even baking.
  • Let the loaf cool completely before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting.
  • You can add chopped nuts or raisins to the cinnamon sugar mixture.
