Stuffed Apple Cinnamon Rolls

For Christmas, Spenser's mom bought me a fabulous cookbook! It is called Our Best Bites--written by two LDS girls who started off as a blog.

We were dying for something tasty to eat for breakfast: Spenser found this delicious recipe. (But to put the facebook comments to rest, I definitely made it! haha)

Ingredients:
1 pkg refridgerated pizza dough (or your favorite home-made pizza or breadstick dough)

Filling:
2 Cups shredded green apples
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 Teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 Tablespoon flour

Topping:
1 Tablespoon melted butter
1 Tablespoon sugar
1/4 Teaspoon ground cinnamon

Glaze:
6 Tablespoons powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon melted butter
1/4 Vanilla or almond extract
1-2 Teaspoons milk

Pre-heat oven to temperature specified on your bread dough

Spray a pie plate (or similar dish( with nonstick cooking spray and set aside

On a lightly floured surfce, roll dough into a rectangle (about 12x18), cut dough into 3-in squares

In a mixing bowl, combine the ingredients for the filling and mix well.

Spoon filling onto each square of dough. Use your fingers to close each square of dough, wrapping dough around filling and pinching to seal shut forming a ball. Place balls seam side down in pie plate.

Combine the toping ingredients and sprinkle on top of the dough. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the rolls are golen brown on top. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes

While the rolls are cooling, whisk the glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle on top of rolls and serve.


As simple as following a recipe--and super super yummy:)
