Looking for a recipe that encompasses all the delicious flavors of homemade Cinnamon Rolls but takes a fraction of the time to make? Then look no further, all that yummy deliciousness can be found in this easy to make Cinnamon Roll Apple Casserole Cake recipe.
Truthfully, this recipe was an afterthought, and I threw it together on the spot because I had no pistachios to make my first choice dessert to go with Christmas dinner the other night. I frantically searched for what ingredients I had on hand that would make a quick and tasty treat in less than 40 minutes. Dinner guests were arriving at 5:00pm. At 4:17pm I found a can of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls and a few apples. At 4:20pm I came up with this deliciously easy recipe and I could not believe the results! It's so good that I knew had to share it with you! This would make a great breakfast casserole too.
Give my recipe a try, it's sure to become a family favorite!
INGREDIENTS:
1 & 1/2 cups of apples, chopped & peeled
1 can of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls with icing (8 count)
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
1/3 cup of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of corn syrup
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
STEPS:
Heat the oven to 350°F. Spray 8 or 9-inch glass pan with cooking spray.
Spread 1 cup of the apples in the sprayed pan.
Separate the dough into 8 rolls. Cut each roll into quarters; place the pieces in large bowl. Add the remaining cut apples to the bowl.
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, the brown sugar, cinnamon and corn syrup and mix well.
Add the brown sugar mixture to the dough mixture and toss gently to combine.
Spoon the mixture over the apples in the pan.
Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes minutes, it will be a deep golden brown.
Cool for 5 minutes (if you can resist!) and you could then invert it onto a serving platter, or if you prefer to just scoop it out as it is, it tastes equally delicious.
Microwave the icing for 15 seconds (remove the lid first). Drizzle over your dessert and serve warm.
Bon appétit!
