Say Hello to Spring With a No-Fuss Brunch

MINNEAPOLIS, April 1 /PRNewswire/ -- It's time to say hello to spring by planning a no-fuss Easter brunch for your family and friends.  

There's nothing sweeter than sharing a Sunday brunch with your loved ones. Pillsbury® Sweet Rolls has teamed up with home and food expert Sandra Lee from Semi-Homemade to show how unbelievably easy it is to make a special Easter brunch. She believes that the goal is not to be stuck in the kitchen, but at the table enjoying the holiday with loved ones.  

"I always try to find smart shortcuts that allow you to create something delicious and still have time to enjoy it with those you love," Lee said. "Refrigerated sweet rolls are a great, money-saving example of how you can make loads of delicious goodness with hardly any prep time. I can tell you from personal experience, there's nothing like pulling a pan of cinnamon rolls from the oven to warm up a home."

Pillsbury Sweet Rolls are a tasty place-and-bake staple to sweeten up springtime brunches or any Sunday morning, and they lend themselves to Sandra's trademark 70/30 Semi-Homemade® philosophy, which combines 70 percent ready-made products, with 30 percent fresh and creative touches.

Sandra Lee offers these recipes to create an easy Easter Sunday brunch that are sure to bring family together around the table.

• Cinnamon Roll French Toast – Cinnamon rolls are baked, sliced crosswise and dipped in a mixture of eggs, milk, maple syrup and vanilla. The slices are then cooked on a griddle until golden brown and topped with a mixture of icing and maple syrup.
• Caramel Pecan Buns – Caramelized chopped pecans are spooned over cinnamon rolls while they are hot out of the oven. Drizzle with icing for an extra easy breakfast treat.
• Chocolate Raspberry Cream Cinnamon Rolls – Raspberry cream cheese filling is spread between sliced Grands!® Cinnamon Rolls, made with real Cinnabon® cinnamon. The rolls are drizzled with chocolate sauce and garnished with fresh raspberries.
• Apple Walnut Sticky Buns – A sweet combination of cinnamon rolls topped with apples, walnuts and brown sugar and finished with a drizzle of icing.

Or add your own touch to Pillsbury® Sweet Rolls by making a customized, brunch-worthy creation:

• Add pastel food coloring to included icing for a pretty addition to the table
