How to make 2 Ingredient Apple Cinnamon Roll Bake
Preheat oven to 350ºF and prepare a 9x13 baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Open the cinnamon rolls and set the icing packs aside. Cut each cinnamon roll in half (1). Place half the cinnamon roll pieces into the prepared baking pan (2).
Spoon just the apples from one of the cans of apple pie filling over the cinnamon roll pieces in the pan (3).
Repeat the process with the remaining cinnamon roll pieces and the other can of apple pie filling (4). Gently stir everything together just enough to combine the layers.
Bake for 45 minutes at 350º or until the top is golden brown and the cinnamon rolls are baked through (5). Drizzle the reserved icing over the top (6 & 7). Serve warm.
Make it your own
it's simple to change the flavor profile while keeping the ease of this low prep recipe. Give these options a try:
- Crunchy - add walnuts or pecans for a crunchy apple treat
- Blueberry Orange - swap to orange Danish rolls and use blueberry pie filling for a citrusy blueberry version; almonds make a great a crunchy add-in with this flavor option
- Icing upgrade - add a bit of cream cheese, vanilla extract, and milk to the included icing and beat until smooth
Equipment
This easy recipe just needs a 9x13" baking pan, a spoon, and kitchen shears or a knife and cutting board.
Storage and freezing
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
✨ Pro Tip for the Best Texture ✨
Scoop just the fruit out of the pie filling, leaving most of the juices in the can. Too much liquid can affect the texture of the bread portion of the recipe.
