Step 1: Remove the cinnamon roll dough and cut each roll into quarters. You can vary the size of the pieces to create different textures. Set aside the icing from each can.

Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and cinnamon, then toss the cinnamon roll dough pieces in the bowl until well coated.
Step 3: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously grease and then lightly flour a large, 12-cup Bundt pan. Arrange all the pieces in the prepared bundt pan.
Step 4: Melt butter and stir in the brown sugar and vanilla; pour over the dough in the Bundt pan.

Step 5: Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until risen, golden-brown, and no longer gooey in the center. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes. Once it’s still warm, but not piping hot, you can flip the bread onto a serving plate.
Step 6: Use a spatula to spread the icing over the top. Serve warm.
