Why You’ll Love This Fall Dessert
- 2 ingredients: All you need is apple pie filling and a tube of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls.
- 10-minute prep: This easy apple cobbler comes together in minutes before heading into the oven.
- Easy fall dessert: Warm cinnamon rolls and gooey apple pie filling make the perfect cozy combination.
- Great shortcut recipe: You get all the flavor of a cinnamon roll apple pie without making anything from scratch.
Ingredients You’ll Need

- Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls – you can either use the Grands or the smaller cinnamon rolls. Either one will work and is delicious! Be sure to save the icing as we’ll be using it too!
- Apple Pie Filling – use a good quality apple pie filling for best results.
Step By Step Instructions


STEP ONE – Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 7×11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
STEP TWO – Remove the cinnamon rolls from the package, following the direction on the package. Set aside the container of icing as you will need it later.
STEP THREE – Use a sharp knife or a handy pair of scissors to cut each cinnamon roll into four to six pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
STEP FOUR – Add the can of apple pie filling to the cut up cinnamon rolls and give everything a gentle stir to combine.


STEP FIVE – Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. I like to move around some of the cinnamon roll pieces to the top and they get a little more browned.
STEP SIX – Bake in 375°F oven for 25 to 30 minutes until fully baked.
STEP SEVEN – Drizzle with icing and serve warm.

This is so easy I can do it. I will let you know how it turns out.
Thanks! I would love that 🙂 Sandra
Someone brought this to our Thanksgiving dinner, and it was so good! Hubby is not crazy about apple, so I wonder if it would work well with peach pie filling.
I haven’t tried it with peach pie filling but I’m guessing it would be delicous!! 🙂 Sandra
Or Cherry pie filling 😋
Sandra,
Thanks for the simple but delicious desert recipe. I will remember this the next time I need a quick desert.
I have some pumpkin spice rolls in the fridge that might marry well with the peach pie filling Christy mentioned. I think I’ll give that a whirl.
It would be delicious with the pumpkin spice rolls! Fantastic idea! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment.
I’m Going to try this but make my own apple pie filling as I prefer homemade!
Can’t wait to try this!
You could definitely make it with homemade! I hope you enjoy this easy dessert!
A huge crowd pleaser and you don’t have to let them know just how easy it is to make. The apples are really delicious add on!!
Had to subscribe. Too many dishes that look delicious & easy to make! Perfect combination.😄
Made this tonight with Peach pie filling and sugar free cherry pie filling because I had these on hand. Wish I could post pictures because they were beautiful!! Yummy
So easy to make an absolutely delicious. Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe!
So happy to hear that you enjoyed it!
Hi and thanks for the recipe. This tasted like raw dough except the top pieces. Wish I was a bigger fan. I even left it in an extra five minutes. Then again, I can’t stand the texture of chicken and dumplings so …. It was a great simple recipe so if I try it again the pie filling just gets dumped and then topped with the rolls
Hi. I am confused. Do you bake the cinnamon rolls ..and then, once they are cooled down..Do you Then cut them in pieces and mix with canned appled, and then bake it in a casserole dish. Or do you cut them in pieces and take the raw pieces and bake it with the apple together? Your recipe says to remove the cinnamon rolls from the package…but then do you cut them up raw, and mix with apple its not making sense and i dont want to ruin it. please help
No you cut them and put them into the dish unbaked~
This was the bomb.
I added toasted chopped pecan..
The larger size pan would work for the person who thought it was under cooked..more crisp top .
Great call with the pecans andyes, definitely could use a large dish as well – thanks for stopping by!
Quick, simple, and delicious dessert for any occasion. Made the apple for a friend and her family and a cherry one for myself. They loved it! Since I did two, I split the rolls in half and cut them up in small pieces. Didn’t get a picture of theirs where the rolls were mixed in better. For the cherry it was mostly on the top.
This Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler looks absolutely delicious! I love the idea of combining two favorites into one dessert. I can’t wait to give this a try and impress my family at our next gathering. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe!
Made this for my neighbors, and they said it was yummy!
I am going to make one with strawberry and see how it turns out.
Strawberry sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing your feedback 🙂
