Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Irish Cream Bread Pudding

Servings: 8
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 2½–3½ hours

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (12–13 oz each) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 cup Irish cream liqueur (such as Baileys)
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the slow cooker
    Lightly grease the inside of a 4–6 quart slow cooker with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Cut the cinnamon rolls
    Open the cans and set the icing packets aside. Cut each cinnamon roll into 1-inch cubes.
  3. Add to the slow cooker
    Place the cubed cinnamon rolls into the slow cooker and spread them into an even layer.
  4. Make the custard mixture
    In a bowl, whisk together the Irish cream liqueur and heavy cream until well combined.
  5. Pour over the rolls
    Pour the mixture evenly over the cinnamon roll cubes. Gently press them down so they absorb the liquid.
  6. Cook the bread pudding
    Cover with the lid and cook on LOW for 2½ to 3½ hours, until the edges are golden and the center is soft and custardy.
  7. Let it rest
    Turn off the slow cooker and allow the pudding to sit for 5–10 minutes.
  8. Add the icing
    Stir the reserved icing packets until smooth. Drizzle the icing over the warm bread pudding so it melts into a sweet glaze.
  9. Serve warm
    Spoon the bread pudding into bowls and serve immediately.

Serving Suggestions

  • Top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
  • Drizzle extra glaze from the slow cooker over each serving.
  • Enjoy with hot coffee, milk, or hot cocoa.

Variations & Tips

  • For a milder flavor, replace half of the Irish cream with whole milk.
  • For an alcohol-free version, use Irish cream–flavored coffee creamer instead.
  • Add chocolate chips or chopped nuts during the last 15 minutes for extra texture.
  • Reheat leftovers in the microwave with a splash of milk or cream to keep it soft.

This simple slow cooker dessert turns just three ingredients into a warm, creamy treat that feels rich, comforting, and perfect for family gatherings.
