Pecan Rolls In Bundt Pan
Sweet and nutty pecan rolls baked in a bundt pan with butterscotch pudding, brown sugar, and pecans, perfect for breakfast or a decadent dessert. Creamy, crunchy, and caramelized flavors blend seamlessly.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Place pecans in the bottom of a greased 10-inch Bundt pan.
- Arrange the frozen Parkerhouse rolls on top of the pecans.
- Sprinkle the dry butterscotch pudding mix over the rolls.
- Melt the butter with brown sugar and white sugar.
- Pour the melted mixture over the rolls.
- Cover the pan with a dish towel and leave on the counter overnight.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25-35 minutes.
- Invert onto a large plate or pan to serve, allowing the syrup to drip over the rolls.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the melted butter mixture. If you don't have butterscotch pudding, vanilla pudding can be used as a substitute. Make sure to grease the Bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking. If you're short on time, allow the rolls to rise for at least 4 hours instead of overnight.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these pecan rolls warm, drizzled with the syrup that forms during baking. They pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee or tea for breakfast or brunch. Consider serving alongside fresh fruit or yogurt for a balanced meal, or even with a slice of Rich Walnut Fruit Cake for dessert.
Storage & Reheating
Leftover pecan rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or warm them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes. This will help retain their softness and flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use homemade rolls instead of frozen?
Yes, you can use homemade rolls, but ensure they are similar in size and texture to frozen Parkerhouse rolls for best results. Just let them rise appropriately before assembling the recipe.
What can I do 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 loaf pan. Just make sure to adjust the baking time, as the rolls may take longer to cook through in a different shape.
How can I make these pecan rolls more festive?
To elevate the occasion, try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the sugar mixture. You can also top the rolls with a light glaze made from powdered sugar and milk after baking, adding a festive touch that's perfect for gatherings.
