INGREDIENT NOTES:
REFRIGERATED CINNAMON ROLLS WITH FROSTING:
- These rolls make the base of this dessert and save prep time. The dough rises and bakes into a sweet crust to hold the apple filling. The warm cinnamon taste in the rolls works nicely with the apples. You may utilize refrigerated crescent roll dough as another choice.
APPLE PIE FILLING:
- This filling gives a sweet and fruity center to the cups. It contains cooked apples, sweetener, spices, and a thick sauce. We use it to save prep time and make the juicy filling. You may use homemade cooked apples with cinnamon and sweetener as an alternative.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, warm the oven to 375°F and spray the eight wells of the muffin pan.
- Open the cinnamon roll package and separate the rolls, then put them in the muffin wells.
- Press the rolls gently in the bottom and sides to make cups, leaving some space in the center.
- Include the apple pie filling in the cinnamon roll cups and bake them for 18 minutes.
- Remove the muffin cups from the oven and cool them for 5 minutes, then take them out.
- Drizzle the frosting of cinnamon rolls on the apple pie cups and serve them.
