Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 tube Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 (20 ounces / 567 grams) can of apple pie filling
Serving Suggestion:
- Vanilla ice cream (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and thoroughly coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray or butter to ensure easy release.
- Carefully slice each cinnamon roll into four uniform quarters, creating bite-sized pieces that will absorb the apple flavors perfectly.
- In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the quartered cinnamon roll pieces with the apple pie filling, ensuring each morsel is evenly coated and distributed.
- Carefully transfer the cinnamon roll and apple mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to create a consistent layer for optimal baking.
- Place the baking dish on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, watching for a golden-brown color and fully cooked cinnamon roll pieces.
- Remove the dish from the oven and immediately drizzle the included frosting generously over the warm dessert, allowing it to melt and create a decadent glaze.
- Serve the Cinnamon Roll Apple Delight while still warm, optionally garnishing each portion with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent touch.
Notes
- Prep in advance by cutting cinnamon rolls into bite-sized pieces before mixing with apple pie filling to ensure even coating and quick assembly.
- Ensure even baking by placing the dish on the center rack of the oven, allowing consistent heat distribution for golden-brown cinnamon rolls.
- Use a 2-quart baking dish to provide enough space for the mixture to spread and cook evenly without overcrowding.
- Drizzle the included frosting while the dessert is still warm to help it melt and create a luscious, glossy finish.
- Elevate the dessert by serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, creating a delightful contrast between warm, spiced rolls and cold, creamy ice cream.
- Check doneness by looking for a golden-brown color and fully cooked cinnamon roll pieces after 20-25 minutes of baking.
