If you’ve followed my blog for any amount of time, you will know that I love to incorporate Apple Pie into pretty much EVERYTHING! I have tons of amazing apple pie recipes… here are just a few of my favorites!
* Apple Pie Tacos * Baked Apple Pie Roll Ups * Apple Pie Egg Rolls *
*2 Ingredient Apple Pie Dumplings * Warm Apple Pie Bread *
All of these amazing recipes can start with canned apple pie filling although I’ve recently added a recipe for an incredible Stove Top Apple Pie filling that tastes incredible and is very easy! Speaking of easy, you’re going to love this delicious recipe… it’s ridiculously easy!
Easy glazed APPLE CINNAMON ROLLS! Apple pie meets soft gooey cinnamon rolls for the best rolls you’ve ever had! Quick & easy, this starts with frozen bread dough and fresh apples and in no time at all you are pulling this heavenly dish out of the oven. I literally could not stop eating them… I had to take the second pan over to the neighbors or I would’ve devoured that pan too!

Instructions
- Trace a 9″ round pan onto parchment paper and cut out 2 circles. Grease the sides & bottom of two 9″ round pans and place the parchment paper in the bottom. Set aside.
- On a floured surface, roll out bread dough into an 18″x9″ rectangle.
- In a small bowl combine brown sugar, cinnamon, flour and butter. Sprinkle over rolled dough. Top with apple filling.
- Roll the dough into a log (it should be 18″ long). Slice into 16 pieces. Place 8 rolls in each pan and cover with parchment paper and a dish towel. Place in a warm area to rise (about 35 minutes).
- Once risen, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 20-23 minutes or until golden.
- Let cool in the pan about 2 minutes. Run a knife around the edges and invert onto a plate.
- In a small ziploc bag, mix the glaze ingredients together. Snip off the corner and drizzle over top.
- Serve warm.

I’m new to making homemade cinnamon rolls, and this was an epic failure for me haha :( everything was going great until I dumped the apple filling on, spread it out, and then tried filling it up.. it was oozing everywhere :/ maybe it was how I was rolling it up? Maybe the filling had to much sauce? I got it rolled into a log but when I went to cut it in half, the filling was just pouring out and the roll I cut was flattened.. it was an aweful mess lol.. I just threw the logs into a couple 9×13 pans and hoping for the best when it bakes.. an apple pie cinnamon log HAHA!!.. maybe next time just take the apples out of the sauce stuff? Help!! What am I doing wrong? These look soo delicious and I want to eat them lol :)
It is possible that your apples had more sauce so were more slippery and messy. Taking the apples out of the sauce should help.
Apple rolls sound delicious, will try…..
This is a terrific recipe. My family is in love!!
I’m glad your family loved this!
Should the butter be melted for this recipe?
No, if the butter is softened it should mix in just fine.
can i substitute thinly sliced fresh apples instead of pie filling ?
I’ve only tried it as written so I can’t say for sure.
This looks soooo good! Could it be made in a 9 x 13 pan instead?
I think a 9×13 might be too big for a single recipe. You might be better to try a 9×9 or 8×8 square pan.
Just pulled these babies out of the oven, glazed them, and couldn’t resist trying…. WOW!!!!
The only change i made was i used a sweet bun recipe for the dough rather than bought bread dough. I personally like making my own dough, and it a touch sweeter than bread dough. Will definitely keep this recipe close! Thanks for sharing!
Oh boy !! This looks really good. Gonna have to make it!!
I love this recipe and can’t wait to try it! Thanks so much for sharing your awesome post with Full Plate Thursday. Have a great week and come back soon!

I wonder if these an be frozen and how long they will last in the fridge.
I have not tried freezing them so I can’t say for sure. The would last about 2 days in the fridge (but they never last that long in my house!) ;)
These look fantastic! I definitely want to try them.
These look so easy and yet so yummy. Definitely trying these.

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing these look! I bet they’d be perfect for snuggling up with on a cool fall morning.
