(Budget) Food for Christmas Morning?

[njsweetP]

Yes. 2 loaves will get you 16 cinnamon rolls.

Ok, so the rest of the ingredients for the filling is to be divided between the
loaves, or should it be doubled?

The "liquid" ingredients will be enough for both loaves.

Great !! Thank you so much, can't wait to try these!

I usually make something different every year. Just depends on what we are in the mood for. This year will be a homemade corned beef hash, eggs, sausage or bacon maybe, coffee for dad and juice for the rest of us. I have been thinking of making some cinnamon rolls too but don't know if I really want to or not.

I will be making Monkey Bread, as I have for the past few years. I tried the breakfast casserole and the girls didn't like it so....lol I may make some bacon and sausage and some scrambled eggs, they do like that but they both like different breakfast meats so it makes a casserole difficult. I will also have juice, milk, hot chocolate and hot tea if we want them.

We will be having scrambled eggs (I'll have mine fried over medium, bacon, biscuits with homemade strawberry jam, mimosa's, coffee. I tried a breakfast casserole one year and my family wasn't a fan either although I was. If I get smart I may whip up a batch of Olivia's (OKW) grits too.

I'm not an egg fan, so none of the breakfast casseroles work for us. Last year I made a quiche, sausage pinwheels and hashbrowns in a muffin tin. I made them all the night before and popped them in the oven Christmas morning.

Something like that might work for your family since they don't want the same meat. You would just have to make bacon or whatever extra.

Thanks, I'll look that up

I make monkey bread every year, and only on Christmas morning. It is so good and sinful that I can only do it once a year!

Dough, sugar and butter - heaven!

For the people that make monkey bread -- do you do it Christmas morning or the night before?

I've always made it Christmas morning... I have DD help me to keep her preoccupied until my parents can make it over & watch her open presents. But I don't think I'll be able to hold her off for that long this year, lol, plus I've got 2 six-month-old babies. I just don't picture me being able to get it done Christmas morning without waking up at 5:00 a.m. to do it.

It's sooooooo good warm & gooey though. Would it taste anywhere near as good if I made it the night before? Could I prep it in the bundt pan the night before & just make the sauce and stick it in the oven in the morning?

Bagels and Cream Cheese, hot cocoa or coffee, and COOKIES.

What time do you want me there?

I put it in the pan the night before and let it rise overnight. Then I bake it in the morning.

This is the version I make. I usually omit the nuts:

Butterscotch Bubbleloaf
Rhodes' famous Butterscotch Bubble Loaf is our most requested recipe every year. Watch how easy it is to make this "sticky buns" classic, and you too will be hooked on baking this bundt!

Skill: Beginning Prep Time: 20 Bake Time: 30-35 Servings: 10-12



Ingredients:

24 Rhodes™ Dinner Rolls, thawed but still cold
1/2 box butterscotch or vanilla pudding mix, non-instant
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine


Directions:
Cut dinner rolls in half and dip in dry pudding mix. Arrange rolls in sprayed bundt pan, alternately with pecans. Sprinkle any remaining pudding mix over the top. Combine brown sugar and butter. Heat together until butter is melted and a syrup is formed (microwave about 1 1/2 minutes). Pour syrup over rolls. Cover with sprayed plastic wrap. Let rise until double in size or even with top of bundt pan. Carefully remove wrap. Bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes. Cover with foil the last 15 minutes of baking. Immediately after baking, loosen from sides of the pan with a knife and invert onto a serving plate.

Thank you! You put the melted butter/sugar on it the night before as well? Do you leave it out on the counter or in the fridge (sorry, I'm not the most skilled chef!)? Perhaps I'll try it with the Rhoads rolls this year instead of the Pillsbury biscuits. We don't care for butterscotch (or vanilla pudding) so I'll just dust them with cinnamon & sugar like my monkey bread recipe calls for.

My mom used to make this, but I think she cut the rolls into quarters.

I always do it the night before, make it and put it in the fridge, in the morning heat the oven, take the pan out of the fridge and set it on the oven, when the oven is warm the dough is warm enough to pop right in the oven. Bakes up great every time. I may do it differently this year though, we have an actual box mix we got as a gift that I need to use up. I use the recipe with the Pillsbury biscuits usually.
