A deliciously comforting Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie Skillet combines the warm flavors of cinnamon rolls and spiced apple pie filling in an easy one-pan dessert perfect for sharing.
Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 2 tubes refrigerated cinnamon rolls (8 rolls each)
Filling
- 1 can (21 oz) apple pie filling
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
- ½ tsp nutmeg (optional)
Topping
- Icing from cinnamon roll package
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it ready for baking the skillet pie.
- Prepare Skillet Crust: Grease a 10-inch oven-safe skillet thoroughly. Press each cinnamon roll flat and arrange them in the skillet, covering both the bottom and sides completely to form a crust.
- Mix Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the apple pie filling with the ground cinnamon and nutmeg if using. Mix gently to evenly distribute the spices.
- Assemble and Bake: Spoon the apple filling evenly over the cinnamon roll crust in the skillet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the crust turns golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Add Icing and Serve: Once baked, drizzle the provided cinnamon roll icing over the warm pie. Serve directly from the skillet for a cozy presentation.
Notes
- Use an oven-safe skillet like cast iron to ensure even baking and easy serving.
- Pressing the cinnamon rolls flat helps them form a more uniform crust and bake evenly.
- Optional spices enhance the apple pie filling but can be omitted if preferred.
- Serve warm for the best flavor and texture experience.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated.
