Equipment

  • Ninja Foodi
  • Mealthy CrispLid
  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/2 cup broken pecans
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 can Pumpkin rolls (I used 6 out of the 8)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Instructions

  • First prepare your pan by lightly greasing, and I also recommend parchment paper. wrap bottom of pan in foil just in case of leakage.
    Preheat Ninja on broil setting for about 5 minutes
  • In a mixing bowl, add all the above ingredients and mix by hand.
    Roll out the rolls one by one in a circular motion around the pan and lightly press down forming around the tart pan. Press down firmly. Place pan on the trivet rack and bake at 325 for approximately 12 minutes.
  • Open lid. Using a flat side of wooden spoon (Spurtle) press down rolls to flatten and make room for pouring mixture on top. I recommend at this point lightly foiling the edges of buns so they don't get too brown.
  • Add mixture on top of baked rolls (you never have to remove the pan while doing this). Set at 325 degrees for approximately 15-18 minutes. Open lid and let cool down before removing. You may add the glaze the rolls comes with while warm.
    Remove from tart pan and enjoy! This is really simple and delicious.

Notes

NOTES: If using a pie shell:
Use 3 eggs, and 1 cup of light corn syrup, 3/4 cup brown sugar, and 1 cup of broken pecans. Pre-bake your pie shell in pan at 325 bake, for 15 minutes to get golden brown.
Before adding in the ingredients, lightly foil the edges of pie crust so they don't burn.
