APPLE CINNAMON ROLLS



Apple Cinnamon Rolls image

Warm and gooey apple cinnamon rolls with delicious caramel icing on top. Fall breakfast has never tasted so good!

Provided by Sally

Categories     Cinnamon Rolls

Time 4h10m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup (240ml) whole milk*
2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar
1 and 1/2 tablespoons (14g) Platinum Yeast from Red Star instant yeast (2 standard size packets)*
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature and cut into 4 pieces
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 and 1/2 cups (563g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled), plus more for dusting/rolling
6 Tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup (100g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1 and 1/2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 cups chopped apples (peel if you'd like, about 2 medium apples)
1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons milk
2 Tablespoons warmed salted caramel

Steps:

  • Heat milk to about 95°F (35°C)- use microwave or stovetop. Pour the warm milk into the bowl of a stand electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment (OR you can use a handheld mixer OR no mixer, but a stand mixer is ideal). With a whisk, manually whisk in the sugar and yeast. Cover with a towel and let sit until the yeast is foamy, about 5-10 minutes. If the yeast does not dissolve and foam, start over with fresh active yeast. On low speed, beat in the softened butter until it is slightly broken up. Next add the eggs, one at a time, and then the salt. The butter won't really be mixing into the mixture, so don't be alarmed if it stays in pieces. On low speed, gradually add the flour. Once it is all added, beat on medium speed until a soft dough forms. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until the dough is soft and supple, about 6 minutes longer. *If you do not have a stand-mixer with a hook attachment, knead the dough by hand in this step.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it with your hands for 1 minute. Form the dough into a ball and transfer it to a lightly greased bowl. Cover the dough loosely with plastic wrap, a paper towel, or aluminum foil and let sit in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 to 2 hours. Here's what I do: turn the oven on to 200°F (93°C). Once heated to that temperature, turn the oven off. Stick the covered dough inside the oven and allow it to rise in this warm environment.
  • Grease the bottom and sides of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured work surface, punch it down and, using a rolling pin, roll into a 12×18 inch rectangle. Make sure the dough is smooth and evenly thick.
  • Spread the softened butter all over the dough. In a small bowl, toss the brown sugar and cinnamon together until combined and then sprinkle evenly over the dough. Top evenly with chopped apples. Tightly roll up the dough to form an 18-inch-long log. Cut into 12 equal rolls. Arrange them in the prepared baking pan. Cover the rolls very tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Allow rolls to rise in a warm environment again for about 45-60 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (191°C). Bake rolls for about 25 minutes until they are golden brown. About halfway through the bake time, I like to cover the rolls loosely with aluminum foil so the tops don't brown too much. Remove pan from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
  • Whisk all of the icing ingredients together and drizzle over warm rolls. Serve warm. Cover leftover frosted or unfrosted rolls tightly and store for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

SALTED CARAMEL APPLE CINNAMON ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY



Salted Caramel Apple Cinnamon Rolls Recipe by Tasty image

Consider these cinnamon rolls fall-ified. We stuffed our classic cinnamon rolls with thinly sliced Granny Smith apples and drizzled them with homemade salted caramel sauce. It's ooey, gooey goodness in every bite. Enjoy for breakfast or dessert!

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Desserts

Time 3h5m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 Homemade Cinnamon Roll
2 granny smith apples, sliced into 1/4 in (6 mm) wedges
1 tablespoon lemon juice
unsalted butter, for greasing
1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
½ cup heavy cream, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Prepare the cinnamon roll dough and filling according to the recipe instructions.
  • Add the apples and lemon juice to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second increments, until the apples are softened and limp.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch (22x33 cm) baking dish with butter.
  • Roll the dough into a large rectangle about ½-inch (1.24 cm) thick. Straighten the corners with a bench scraper to make sure they are sharp and even.
  • Spread the filling evenly over the dough, then arrange the apple slices on top, leaving about ¼ inch (6 mm) between each slice. Try to keep your slices in straight rows, it's okay if the tips of the apple slices touch or overlap.
  • Starting from a short end, roll the dough into a log and pinch the seam closed. Place the log seam-side down and trim off the uneven ends. Using unflavored dental floss or a sharp knife, cut the log into even pieces, each about 1½ inches (3 ½ cm) thick. Place the rolls in the prepared baking dish, cover with a kitchen towel, and set in a warm place for 35-45 minutes, until expanded in volume by about 50%. If not baking immediately, skip this step, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes.
  • While the cinnamon rolls bake, make the salted caramel sauce: Add the sugar to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally but not stirring, until it starts to turn amber brown, 5-6 minutes.
  • Add the butter and stir in until incorporated, 1-2 minutes..
  • Slowly drizzle in the cream and whisk to combine. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and flaky salt. Let cool and thicken slightly before using.
  • Pour the salted caramel sauce over the cinnamon rolls, then serve.
  • Enjoy!
