What Ingredients Are in Apple Pie Cinnamon Roll Casserole?

Cinnamon Roll apple bake is a delightful twist and such an easy bake!

Here are the two ingredients you’ll need to grab:

• Apple pie filling: Sweet apple chunks and warm cinnamon spice!

Pro Tip: Diced apples are not the same! Apple pie filling is full of more spices and sauce too.

 

 

How to Make Apple Pie Cinnamon Roll Casserole

This easy apple cinnamon roll bake is the best part of any morning!

The whole printable recipe card is below. But here’s what you need to know:

1. In a large bowl, combine the cinnamon roll pieces with the apple pie filling.
2. Bake until golden brown and the center is no longer doughy.
3. Drizzle with icing: Warm the reserved icing and drizzle over the top of the casserole.

Pro Tips: 

• Cover with aluminum foil if the top browns too quickly before the center is baked through.
• Cut each unbaked roll into bite-size pieces using kitchen scissors or kitchen shears.

 

 

Is Apple Cinnamon Roll Casserole Healthy?

I wouldn’t necessarily say these homemade cinnamon rolls are healthy.

They are cinnamon rolls after all! But they are DELICIOUS!

Eat them as a special treat. 

Or just don’t eat the whole casserole dish in one sitting. By yourself. I’ve definitely never done anything like that.

 

 

How Long Does Cinnamon Roll Casserole with Apples Last?

Apple pie cinnamon rolls can last up to three days.

Although if you can resist downing them for three whole days I’m very impressed!

Of course they’re best enjoyed fresh. Slightly cooled. But warm. Gooey. Delicious.

Or they can be reheated the next morning. That’s pretty stinking good too!

 

 

How to Store Apple Cinnamon Roll Casserole

Store leftovers in an airtight container.

You’ll want to wait until they cool completely to room temperature.

You can also cover the whole casserole dish with plastic wrap.

Then refrigerate to keep it fresh.

 

 

Can You Freeze Apple Cinnamon Roll Casserole?

Yes, you can freeze these apple cinnamon buns!

Place individual pieces in a plastic bag. Then freeze them and pull out one at a time.

Or wrap the entire dish tightly. Then you can warm the whole thing up for a big gathering.

Freeze for up to one month. 

I also recommend thawing in the refrigerator before reheating.

Though you could also reheat straight from the freezer.

Just be careful. It takes a while for the center to get warm so you’re more likely to burn the outsides.

If you do it that way, I definitely recommend wrapping with aluminum foil while it heats.

Is Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie Casserole a Breakfast or Dessert?

Honestly you can serve this easy apple pie casserole as either a delicious breakfast or a show stopping dessert!

If you serve it with breakfast, just put it with other breakfast foods. Super easy.

And if you serve it as a dessert, serve it by itself or with ice cream or a drizzle of some kind.

It doesn’t matter which one you choose. Everyone is going to love it either way.

Can I Add Caramel to Apple Pie Cinnamon Roll Casserole?

Um…yes!! You can definitely add caramel to this apple pie cinnamon roll bake!

Just drizzle caramel sauce over the top as the casserole cools.

You could also add it to the cinnamon roll dough. 

But I think it has a better presentation when drizzled on top.
