Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 package Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls (usually 8 rolls with icing)
  • 1 (20-ounce) can of apple pie filling

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and spray a 7×11-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Cinnamon Rolls: Remove the cinnamon rolls from the package and carefully separate each roll. Keep the container of icing to use later as a topping.
  3. Cut Cinnamon Rolls: Using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors, cut each cinnamon roll into 4 to 6 smaller pieces to help them bake evenly.
  4. Mix with Apple Filling: Place the cut cinnamon roll pieces into a large mixing bowl. Add the entire can of apple pie filling and gently stir to combine all the ingredients without breaking the dough too much.
  5. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly and arrange some cinnamon roll pieces on top to ensure a nicely browned and textured surface.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated 375°F oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until the cinnamon rolls are fully baked through and golden brown on top.
  7. Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly, then drizzle the reserved icing over the warm cobbler before serving for an extra sweet finish.

Notes

  • For a crispier top, move some cinnamon roll pieces on top before baking to brown nicely.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
  • You can substitute apple pie filling with other fruit pie fillings like cherry or peach for variation.
  • Use kitchen scissors for easier and neater cutting of cinnamon rolls.
  • Be careful not to over-stir when mixing to maintain desirable dough texture.
