Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 2 cans of cinnamon rolls, quartered
- 1 can of apple pie filling
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Topping
- Cinnamon roll icing (from the cans of cinnamon rolls)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cinnamon Roll Mixture: Quarter the cinnamon rolls and place them in a large mixing bowl. Add the apple pie filling and chopped walnuts or pecans. Gently mix everything together until combined well.
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray. Pour the cinnamon roll mixture into the dish and spread it out evenly to form a uniform layer.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown on top and cooked thoroughly in the center.
- Add the Icing: Remove the dish from the oven and immediately drizzle the cinnamon roll icing over the warm baked mixture for a sweet finishing touch.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the apple bake to cool for a few minutes before serving. This makes it easy to cut and enjoy the comforting dessert at its best.
Notes
- You can substitute walnuts or pecans based on your preference or nut allergies.
- If you like extra spice, sprinkle a bit of ground cinnamon or nutmeg into the mixture before baking.
- This bake is best enjoyed warm but can be reheated gently for leftovers.
- Using nonstick spray will help prevent the mixture from sticking to the baking dish for easy serving and cleanup.
