Crock Pot Apple Pie Cinnamon Roll Casserole is a gooey and delicious fall breakfast or brunch. So easy to make!
Refrigerated cinnamon rolls and canned apple pie filling combine to make a super easy breakfast casserole.
Because it’s so easy, this Crock Pot Apple Pie Cinnamon Roll Casserole makes a great Christmas brunch recipe. As a bonus, it makes the house smell wonderful.
To make this yummy crock pot casserole, you’ll take 2 tubes of refrigerated cinnamon rolls and cut each one in quarters. Place half of them in the bottom of a 6-quart crock pot that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Spoon about 3/4 cup of apple pie filling over them.
Add the remaining cinnamon rolls evenly on top.
Whisk together 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of half-and-half, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Pour the mixture over the cinnamon rolls. Spoon the remaining apple pie filling evenly on top.
Cover and cook on LOW for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Spread the cinnamon roll icing on top and serve warm.
Tips for making:
- You will want to use at least a 6-quart crock pot. If you use a smaller one, the center will not get cooked.
- Crock pots can vary greatly in how hot they get and how quick (or slow) they cook the food. Get to know your crock pots for best results. Cooking times are estimates.
- If you like a gooey center in your cinnamon rolls, you will love the center of this casserole. If you don’t like them gooey, you will have to cook it longer and you run the risk of the outside burning a little if your crock pot runs hot.

Can this recipe be made in the oven rather than a crock pot? It really looks delicious!!! Thanks
Can this be prepared the night before and cooked the next morning?
Instead of half and half would whole milk work too or an alternative?
Can you double this recipe for a larger family/crowd?
I have a 4qt Crockpot, how can I modify this to work in it
I have a tall 6qt crockpot so I cut the recipe in 1/2 so it would work, that would probably work the same for a 4qt.
I made this last night and it’s very good !
Can u use a slow cooker
Yes a crock pot & a slow cooker are the same thing
