These are not the pecan rolls to make if you are in a hurry. These cinnamon pecan rolls are meant to be enjoyed over a mug of coffee and Pinterest. The best part of a holiday or long weekend is the opportunity to linger over breakfast. These Rhodes cinnamon pecan breakfast rolls are the morning treat to kick off a long weekend.

These overnight cinnamon pecan breakfast rolls need just six ingredients and 1/2 of those ingredients are baking staples.

Years ago, when we lived outside of Columbus, one of my best friend’s moms shared this cinnamon pecan breakfast rolls recipe.

It has been a favorite at our house for almost twenty years. I love to reread the original recipes and I do this with thank you cards and cookbooks.

These pecan rolls make an appearance every Christmas morning and Thanksgiving weekend.

This recipe should start with a warning. These breakfast pecan rolls are addictive. It is nearly impossible to eat one.

And, the best part is the bottom of the bundt pan where the cinnamon, pecans and butter pool after 25 minutes of baking. Yummy! Just grab a spoon and scoop up the gooey goodness. The Rhodes dinner rolls act like a doughy sponge to grab the melted brown sugar and pecans.

The kids or grandkids could make these with you for a relaxing night in the kitchen. Because of this recipe, I keep a bag of Rhodes frozen dinner rolls in my garage fridge… just in case. And, a box of butterscotch pudding!
