If you follow me on social media, you may remember me asking you to cross your fingers that this concoction came out, because if it did it was going to be EPIC. Well, I am happy to report that it did in fact turn out and it was beyond epic!

My kids get bored extremely easily with food, so I have to change things up quite a bit. They love when I make pie because they always get to enjoy a slice the next morning for breakfast. They also absolutely love cinnamon rolls and they are a real Sunday morning treat. In an effort to change things up, I decided to combine their 2 favorite things....Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie.

I used two cans of Pepperidge Farms Caramel Pecan Sweet Rolls that I purchased at Walmart. The first can of cinnamon rolls I rolled out together to form a crust. It then layered the pie with a simple apple mixture (a bit of sugar and a nob of butter). Finally, I unrolled the contents of the second can and weaved them on top of the apples. I covered the pie lightly and baked it for about 45 minutes. Easy peasy.

To be honest, I actually made two of these, because I knew that the sweet cinnamon and apple aromas would wake the family up and the would insist on eating it warm. I was right. Thankfully I had another that I was able to photograph before it was gobbled up the next day. Served with a fresh glass of Florida Orange juice and a side of fruit, this is a fun and delicious way to start your day. This apple pie would also make a pretty delicious dessert!
