Ingredients
Scale
Cinnamon Roll Base
- 1 can (8 count) refrigerated cinnamon rolls
Filling
- 21 ounces canned apple pie filling
Topping
- Icing packet included with cinnamon rolls
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and thoroughly grease 8 cups of a muffin pan to prevent sticking.
- Shape Cinnamon Rolls: Separate the cinnamon roll dough into individual sections and press one piece firmly into the bottom and up the sides of each greased muffin tin cup, creating a dough shell.
- Add Apple Filling: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the canned apple pie filling into the center of each pressed cinnamon roll dough cup, distributing evenly.
- Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are puffed up and golden brown on top.
- Cool and Glaze: Remove from oven and allow the apple pie cups to cool for 5 minutes. Then drizzle the included cinnamon roll icing over each cup to add sweetness and a glossy finish.
Notes
- You can substitute canned apple pie filling with homemade spiced apples for a fresher taste.
- For extra crunch, sprinkle chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans on top before baking.
- Serve these warm for the best flavor experience.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat briefly before serving.
