PILLSBURY CINNAMON ROLLS WITH APPLE PIE FILLING RECIPES

Steps:

• Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In large resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix sugar and cinnamon. Remove rolls from cans; cover and refrigerate icing containers. Separate dough into 10 rolls; cut each into 6 pieces. Add roll pieces to large bowl; drizzle with melted butter, tossing to coat.
• Add half of the roll pieces to bag with sugar and cinnamon mixture; seal and shake to coat pieces, breaking up any large clumps. Remove from bag, and arrange pieces in baking dish. Repeat for remaining dough; discard any remaining sugar mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight (9 to 12 hours).
• Heat oven to 350°F. Remove baking dish from refrigerator. In small bowl, add apple pie filling; cut apples into 1-inch pieces with kitchen scissors. Drop 12 tablespoonfuls apple pie filling on top of dough, creating pockets of filling, and spacing about 2 inches apart.
• Bake 27 to 32 minutes or until dough is baked through in center and deep golden brown around edges. If starting to brown too much, cover with foil last 5 minutes of baking.
• Cool 10 minutes. In small microwavable bowl, add icing from both containers. Microwave uncovered on High 15 to 20 seconds or until stirred smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle icing on top before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Separate dough into 8 rolls, and place cinnamon side up on counter. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes. In small microwavable bowl, place icing from container; cover and refrigerate.
• Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter using fork or pastry blender until crumbly. Stir in pecans; set aside.
• Press and flatten each roll into 3 1/2-inch round. In ungreased 9-inch pie plate, place 1 roll in center; surround with remaining 7 rolls. Pat and press to stretch dough to cover bottom and side of pie plate. Make sure there are no holes between the flattened rolls. Bake 10 minutes.
• Spoon pie filling in center of cinnamon roll crust; top evenly with streusel. Bake 20 to 23 minutes or until edges of crust and topping are golden brown. Cover edges of crust with strips of foil during last 5 to 8 minutes of baking, if necessary, to prevent excessive browning. Cool 1 hour.
• Before serving, microwave icing uncovered on High 10 to 15 seconds or until thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle back and forth over top of pie.
