Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with butter-flavored cooking spray.
Step 2
Mix white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl.
Step 3
Open the refrigerated cinnamon rolls. Divide rolls by package, then cut into quarters with a pizza/dough cutter.
Step 4
Place each package of cut cinnamon roll pieces in the sugar mixture and toss until covered, keeping them separated. Do not discard excess sugar mixture.
Step 5
Layer each separate portion of sugar-coated cinnamon roll pieces in the bottom of the prepared pan, sprinkling with pecans as you go, ending with pecans on top.
Step 6
Combine excess sugar mixture with 3/4 cup of butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; bring to a boil. Pour butter mixture over the cinnamon roll pieces.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven until the top is crispy, about 40 minutes. Remove and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
Step 8
Remove the bread from the Bundt® pan, then drizzle the icing over the bread to taste.
Step 9
While cooling, mix confectioners' sugar, lemon-lime beverage, oats, and remaining 1/2 cup of room temperature butter together for icing.
