Ingredients
Instructions
- Lay frozen dinner rolls around the bottom of a generously greased bundt pan.
- Sprinkle dry pudding mix and pecans on top of rolls.
- Combine melted butter and brown sugar, then pour over the pecans.
- Allow the dough to rise until it reaches the top of the pan (can let rise overnight for breakfast).
- Bake for 40 minutes at 350°F.
- Turn onto a serving dish immediately.
Tips & Substitutions
For best results, let the rolls rise overnight for a delicious breakfast treat. If you don't have butterscotch pudding mix, vanilla pudding can be used as a substitute for a similar flavor. To add a hint of spice, consider mixing in a pinch of cinnamon with the pecans. Ensure your bundt pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.
Serving Suggestions
These sweet rolls are perfect for brunch or as a delightful dessert. Serve them warm, drizzled with a little extra melted butter or a light glaze. They pair beautifully with a side of fresh fruit or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat. For a breakfast option, consider serving them alongside Overnight French Toast Cut-Outs.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover sweet rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you need to keep them longer, refrigerate for up to a week. To reheat, simply warm them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-10 minutes until warmed through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh dinner rolls instead of frozen?
Yes, you can use fresh dinner rolls, but the texture will differ. If using fresh, reduce the rising time as they will not need to thaw like frozen rolls. Keep an eye on the baking time as well; they may bake faster.
How can I make these rolls more festive for holidays?
To make the rolls more festive, consider adding dried fruits like cranberries or chopped apples along with the pecans. You can also sprinkle some holiday spices, such as nutmeg or cloves, into the pudding mix for added flavor.
What is the best way to serve these rolls?
These rolls are best served warm and can be drizzled with a simple icing made from powdered sugar and milk. For a delightful twist, serve them with a dollop of whipped cream or alongside a cup of coffee for a cozy treat.
