Bundt Pan Rolls
Sweet, nutty Bundt pan rolls filled with pecans, brown sugar, and butterscotch pudding, perfect for a cozy breakfast or dessert to delight family and guests alike.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Generously grease a Bundt pan and sprinkle the bottom with half of the pecans.
- Place the frozen dinner rolls on top of the pecans and sprinkle the remaining pecans over the rolls.
- Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon with the melted oleo (butter).
- Pour the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the rolls in the pan.
- Let the rolls rise overnight at room temperature.
- In the morning, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake the rolls for 20 to 30 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and invert the pan onto a serving plate as soon as possible.
Tips & Substitutions
For an extra flavor boost, consider adding a touch of vanilla extract to the melted oleo mixture. If you can't find butterscotch pudding, vanilla pudding works as a great substitute. Ensure the rolls are completely thawed before baking for even cooking. You can also sprinkle in some chocolate chips for a sweet twist.
Serving Suggestions
These Bundt pan rolls make a delightful breakfast or brunch treat, especially when served with a side of fresh fruit or a drizzle of maple syrup. They pair beautifully with a cup of coffee or tea. For a fuller meal, consider serving them alongside a savory dish like scrambled eggs or a hearty quiche.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover Bundt pan rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply wrap them in aluminum foil and warm in a 350°F oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. This keeps them soft and delicious.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh dinner rolls instead of frozen?
Yes, you can use fresh dinner rolls, but they will require less rising time. Simply skip the overnight rise and let them sit for about an hour before baking. Keep an eye on the baking time as they might cook faster than frozen rolls.
What if I don't have a Bundt pan?
If you don't have a Bundt pan, you can use a regular round cake pan or a casserole dish. Just make sure to grease the pan well and adjust the baking time, as it may vary depending on the pan size and shape.
Can I make these rolls ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the rolls and assemble them in the Bundt pan, then cover and refrigerate overnight. Just let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking to ensure they rise properly.
