Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 loaves frozen bread dough
  • 1 package regular pudding (butterscotch or vanilla)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup chopped nuts

Instructions

  1. Place slices of frozen bread dough in a Bundt pan.
  2. Sprinkle the dough slices with pudding and cinnamon.
  3. Mix melted butter, brown sugar, and chopped nuts; pour over the dough.
  4. Cover with foil and leave on the counter overnight.
  5. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes.
  6. Turn the pan over onto a plate to serve.

Tips & Substitutions

For best results, ensure the bread dough is fully thawed before assembling the rolls. If you prefer a nut-free version, you can easily omit the chopped nuts or substitute with seeds like pumpkin or sunflower. Consider using butterscotch pudding for a richer flavor, or try vanilla for a lighter taste. A sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking can enhance the overall sweetness.

Serving Suggestions

These butterscotch breakfast rolls are delightful served warm, drizzled with a simple icing made of powdered sugar and milk. Pair them with fresh fruit or a side of yogurt for a balanced breakfast. They also make a lovely addition to a brunch spread alongside dishes like Frances Phillip'S Broccoli Casserole or a fresh fruit salad.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover butterscotch breakfast rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, simply pop them in a microwave for 15-20 seconds or warm them in an oven set to 350°F for about 5-10 minutes until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use freshly made bread dough instead of frozen?

Yes, you can use freshly made bread dough, but it will require adjustments in proofing time. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size before proceeding with the recipe. This can enhance the texture and flavor of your rolls.

What can I do if I don't have butterscotch pudding?

If butterscotch pudding is unavailable, vanilla pudding is a great substitute. For a different flavor profile, consider using chocolate pudding, which will give a rich, decadent twist to your breakfast rolls.

How can I make these rolls more indulgent?

To elevate these rolls, consider adding chocolate chips or dried fruit, such as raisins or cranberries, to the filling. You can also top them with a cream cheese glaze after baking to add a creamy, tangy flavor contrast.
