Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I preheated my oven to 350°F (175°C). I find this step crucial to getting that golden brown top that I adore. Next, I peeled and diced the apples into bite-sized pieces and tossed them in a bowl with the brown sugar and cinnamon. The smell of the cinnamon mixing with sweet apples was simply heavenly! After that, I unrolled the cinnamon rolls and cut them into quarters, mixing them gently with the apple mixture. This is where the fun begins! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
