Can I use store-bought cinnamon rolls instead of homemade?

Absolutely! While homemade cinnamon rolls will take this bake to the next level, store-bought refrigerated rolls will work just fine. Just be sure to choose a high-quality brand for the best texture and flavor.

How long does the bake need to sit in the fridge before baking?

For best results, let the assembled bake sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours. This allows the bread to fully soak up all the rich custard mixture, resulting in a super moist and flavorful final dish.

Can I make this bake ahead of time?

Yes, this recipe is perfect for making in advance! Assemble the bake the night before, cover, and refrigerate. In the morning, just pop it in the oven and bake as directed. It's an easy, stress-free way to enjoy a decadent breakfast without any fuss.

How should I store any leftovers?

Store any leftover Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, simply microwave individual portions for 30-60 seconds until warmed through. You can also reheat the entire bake in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes.

Can I freeze this recipe?

Absolutely! To freeze, let the bake cool completely, then cut into individual portions and transfer to an airtight, freezer-safe container or bag. It will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw overnight in the fridge, then reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until heated through.
