Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Cut the rolls evenly so they bake at the same rate.
  • Add chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts if you want a crunchy texture.
  • Want it extra sweet? Drizzle icing or maple syrup over the top before serving.
  • For a softer finish, cover the dish with foil for the first half of baking, then uncover to brown the top.
