You can get creative and change up the flavors any way you would like. Blueberry, peach, and even strawberry pie filling would take great in this breakfast casserole.

During the Fall and Winter seasons, just a pumpkin pie filling would certainly create a warm and cozy breakfast.

What's Needed to Make Apple Cinnamon Roll Casserole

A 1.5-quart casserole dish is needed to make this apple cinnamon roll bake. You want the chopped cinnamon roll pieces to completely cover the bottom of the dish so that the ingredients bake together and create a dense but flavorful casserole.

Anything larger than the 1.5-quart dish will create gaps and space and the casserole will bake much thinner than using the specified dish.
