Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie

This delicious Apple Pie is a mix of two flavors that complement each other so well. This pie recipe is such a fun twist on a traditional apple pie and has become a family favorite. Another yummy version of this combo is our 2-ingredient Apple Pie Cups that uses cinnamon rolls and apple pie filling.

If you are like me and absolutely love apple desserts, you will also love Caramel Apple Rice Krispie Treats and Baked Apple Pie Donuts. These are great when you want a delicious fall-inspired treat but want something different than pumpkin.

Ingredients You Will Need:

  • Ground cinnamon– Cinnamon and apples are the perfect combination.
  • Salt- The salt will bring out the flavors in your dessert.

  • Pie crust- You can buy premade pie crust or make your own homemade crust.

Does Apple Pie Need To Be Refrigerated?

You can store apple pie at room temperature for 2 days and then refrigerate after that. Cover the pie with plastic wrap. 

Won’t the Cinnamon Rolls be Soggy?

No, your cinnamon rolls will not become soggy when adding to your Apple Pie. They are placed on the finished pie and not added with the apple to make them soggy. The bottom will soak up the pie filling slightly but overall the rolls will not get soggy and still have the same texture as they would outside of the pie.
