I made these Cinnamon Roll Stuffed Baked Apples for a Halloween brunch I hosted last year and let me tell you, they went down a treat! Everyone was so impressed by the cinnamon rolls stuffed into the apples. The best thing for me is that they were super easy to prepare. The dough doesn’t require a long proving time which means I could prep these and concentrate on some of my other dishes and then bake them when the guests arrive.
I make a simple dough from water, yeast, flour, honey and salt. While the dough is proving, I hollow out some round wide apples. I fill the dough with cinnamon sugar and butter and roll it up to make the cinnamon rolls which I then stuff into each of the hollowed out apples. Once these are baked, I drizzle over a cream cheese frosting to make this impressive looking dessert!
To make Cinnamon Roll Stuffed Baked Apples, you will need the following ingredients:
Fit the dough attachment to your stand mixer. In the bowl of the mixer, combine water, yeast, and honey and leave to stand for 5 minutes.
Add the flour and salt to the yeast mixture. Turn the mixer on low and start mixing. When the ingredients come together, increase the speed to medium-low and knead it for a few more minutes until dough is smooth. Then transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Leave to rest for about 10 minutes.
While the dough rests, mix the sugars and cinnamon together in a bowl.
When the dough has rested, roll it into a 9x15 inch rectangle.
Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
Spread the softened butter on top of the dough rectangle and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
Roll one of the long ends toward the other long end so you have a dough log. Trim the ends with a sharp knife and discard. Slice the rest of the log into twelve equal slices. Place each cinnamon roll inside each apples with the swirl side up.
Bake in the oven until the until tops are golden brown and the rolls are cooked through, about 25 minutes.
While the apples are baking, beat together cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar until it is fully incorporated and smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until you reach a consistency you can drizzle.
Allow the stuffed apples to cool slightly. Drizzle the frosting over the top.
Serve warm.
