Cinnamon Roll Casserole

This Cinnamon Roll Casserole is a new favorite in Pretty's house. I discovered it while reading one of the Pioneer Woman's magazines and fell in love. Did y'all know that she lives in my hometown, Pawhuska, Oklahoma? She has put my sweet little town on the map. If you ever have a chance to go visit, do it! It was a great place to grow up and I am thankful that I call it my hometown.

Back to the casserole, if you love cinnamon rolls, this is your dish. Of course you can't have a steady diet of it, but make this for special occasions and when your grandkids spend the night. It would also be fun to serve for brunch or take it to afamily that needs a touch of love. It is guaranteed to put a smiles on faces plus it makes your house smell so yummy and cozy! Here's how...

1 Tbsp salted butter

4 large eggs

1/2 cup half-and-half

1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar

1/3 cup pecans, chopped
