  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 can (21 oz) apple pie filling
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, mix flour, yeast, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Combine warm milk and melted butter, then stir into dry ingredients until a rough dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough: Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  3. Let it rise: Place in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
  4. Roll out: Punch down the dough, roll into a rectangle, and spread apple pie filling evenly over the top.
  5. Add cinnamon sugar: Sprinkle with additional cinnamon and brown sugar before rolling it up tightly.
  6. Slice & bake: Cut into rolls and place in a greased baking dish. Let rise again for 30 minutes while preheating oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for about 25 minutes until golden.
