  • Total Time: 35-40 minutes
  • Yield: 5 servings

Ingredients

Pie Ingredients

  • 1 can (17.5 ounces) jumbo cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing (5 count)
  • 1 can (20 ounces) apple pie filling, coarsely chopped if desired
  • Caramel sauce, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray 5 jumbo-sized muffin tin cups with nonstick cooking spray. Place the muffin pan on a large baking sheet for stability and ease of handling.
  2. Shape Dough: Separate the cinnamon roll dough into 5 individual rolls, setting the cream cheese icing aside for later. Place each roll cinnamon side up into the prepared muffin cups, pressing the dough evenly into the bottoms and up the sides to form a crust.
  3. Fill with Apple Pie Filling: Spoon the canned apple pie filling evenly into each dough-lined muffin cup, ensuring each cup is generously filled.
  4. Bake: Bake the pies in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until they turn a golden brown color and the dough is fully cooked through.
  5. Cool Slightly: Remove the muffin pan from the oven and let the pies cool in the pan for 5 minutes to set slightly.
  6. Remove from Muffin Cups: Run a knife carefully around the edges of each pie to loosen them from the sides of the muffin cups, then lift them out gently and transfer to a serving plate.
  7. Drizzle Icing: If the cream cheese icing did not come in a squeeze bag, place it into a small resealable plastic bag and cut a small corner off one end. Drizzle the icing over each cinnamon roll apple pie.
  8. Add Caramel Topping and Serve: Drizzle caramel sauce over each pie for extra sweetness and serve warm to enjoy the gooey, comforting flavors.

Notes

  • Coarsely chopping the apple pie filling can help distribute pieces more evenly and make bites less bulky.
  • Using the baking sheet underneath the muffin tin prevents drips and makes it easier to move the pan.
  • Letting the pies cool slightly before removing prevents them from breaking apart.
  • Serve warm for the best taste experience with melty icing and caramel sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
