The BEST Quick & Easy Dessert Recipe
It doesn’t get any easier than this! This simple homemade dessert recipe is made with just a can of apple pie filling and a tube of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls. And trust me, these two ingredients are a match made in heaven, especially when you serve it warm and top it with vanilla ice cream. Yum!
Now that it’s September, I’ve been craving anything and everything fall related, and this easy apple cobbler reminds me of Thanksgiving only without any of the hassle. In fact, it’s easier than most dump cakes!
Super Quick & Easy Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler Recipe
- 1 (20oz) can of apple pie filling
- 1 tube of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls
- vanilla ice cream (optional but not really)
Now that you’ve got your ingredients, simply cut the cinnamon rolls up into quarters and toss them with the apple pie filling. Spread the mixture onto the bottom of a small greased baking dish and bake for about 25 minutes in a 375 degree oven.
Bake until the cinnamon rolls are cooked all the way through and start to brown, and then drizzle the icing that comes with the cinnamon roll tube all over the top.
Enjoy alone or with a big heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream. No, wait a minute. Ice cream is a must. I think it might be forbidden to eat cobblers without it.
I was a little worried that the cinnamon rolls might be soggy, but they turned out just right! However, I would recommend a 2 quart baking dish or anything large enough so that the cinnamon rolls aren’t completely buried in the apple mixture before baking.
2 Ingredient Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler
Ingredients
- 1 tube Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 (20oz) can of apple pie filling
- vanilla ice cream (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F and grease a 2-quart baking dish.
- Cut each cinnamon roll into 4 bite-sized pieces and toss them with the apple pie filling.
- Place the mixture into your prepared dish and bake uncovered in the center rack of your oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are cooked through and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and spread the frosting that came with the tube of cinnamon rolls all over the top.
- Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- You could also top with toasted pecans for added crunch.
- In case you're not familiar with baking dish sizes, a 2-quart dish is typically 9x9 or 7x11. You just want to make sure it's large enough so that the cinnamon rolls aren't completely buried or they might not bake evenly.
