This recipe for apple pie cinnamon rolls takes canned cinnamon rolls and apple pie filling to create a scrumptious apple breakfast treat.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Cool Time: 5 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Granny Smith apples peeled and diced
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 can cinnamon buns
  • 1 tbsp caramel sauce

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the apples, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Heat the mixture over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until the butter and sugar have melted. Pour the mixture into a 9-inch cake Pan and spread evenly. Place the cinnamon bun on top of the apple mixture, with one in the center and the other four evenly spaced around the center.
  • Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes.
  • Allow the pan to cool for about 5 minutes, then place a plate over the top of the pan and flip it over.
  • Warm the glaze that came with the cinnamon buns and the caramel sauce together in a small bowl for about 10 seconds in the microwave. Stir them together and drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the cinnamon buns.

Notes

Storage:
  • To Store: The cinnamon buns are best in fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container on the counter for two days. 
  • To Freeze: I don’t recommend freezing this recipe after it’s been baked. It doesn’t thaw quite right. This is best served fresh or reheated from the fridge.
  • To Reheat: When you want to eat them, you can reheat them in the microwave for 30 seconds.
