Ingredients

Main Ingredients

2 cans (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
2 medium apples, cored and chopped
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup caramel sauce

Optional Toppings

1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Optional whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Open the cinnamon roll cans and separate the rolls; cut each into quarters.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped cinnamon roll pieces, chopped apples, and ground cinnamon, tossing gently to coat.

Baking

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and drizzle evenly with caramel sauce.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
While warm, drizzle the reserved icing from the cinnamon rolls over the bake.

Serving

For an extra touch, sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired, and serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

You can use any type of apple you prefer, such as Granny Smith for a tart contrast or Fuji for a sweeter flavor. This bake is best served warm and can be stored covered at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerated for up to 4 days.
