Ingredients
- 1 batch Quick Stovetop Apple Pie Filling or 1 can (21 ounces) apple pie filling
- ⅓ cup butter softened
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Glaze
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
- ½ tablespoon water
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Dough
- ¼ cup warm water
- 1 package active dry yeast or 2 ¼ teaspoon
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar plus 1 teaspoon
- ¾ cup milk
- ⅓ cup butter
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 4 to 4 ½ cups all purpose flour divided
Instructions
- Grease a 9x13" pan and set aside. Chop the apples in the filling and set aside.
Dough
- Combine water, yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in a small bowl. Let sit 10 minutes or until foamy.
- Combine milk, butter, remaining sugar, and salt in a saucepan and heat to 120-130°F. Place 2 cups flour in a stand mixer. Add eggs, milk mixture and yeast mixture. Mix until combined.
- Using a dough hook, add remaining flour, ½ cup at a time to form a soft dough that pulls away from the side of the bowl. You may not use all of the flour.
- Remove dough from the bowl and knead on a lightly floured surface until dough is smooth and elastic (approx. 8 mins).
- Place in a greased bowl in a warm spot and cover with a towel for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- On a floured surface, roll out bread dough into an 18″x9″ rectangle.
Assembly
- Cover the dough with a thin layer of butter. In a small bowl combine brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle it over the rolled dough. Top with apple filling.
- Roll the dough into a log (it should be 18″ long). Slice into 12 pieces. Place the rolls in the pan and cover with parchment paper and a dishtowel. Place in a warm area to rise (about 60 minutes).
- Once risen, preheat oven to 375°F. Bake 22-27 minutes or until golden. Cool slightly.
- In a small zippered bag, mix the glaze ingredients together. Snip off the corner and drizzle over top.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Ensure the filling is not chilled from the fridge or the rolls won't rise properly.
- These rolls are best served warm from the oven.
- You can use thawed bread dough in place of homemade dough. It will need longer to rise. If using thawed bread dough, the centers will hollow slightly as these cool.
