Description

These Apricot Pie Crust Cinnamon Rolls are a flaky, fruit-filled twist on classic cinnamon rolls. Made with pie dough and sweet apricot preserves, they’re an easy and delightful treat for tea time, brunch, or a quick dessert fix.


Ingredients

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out pie crust into a thin rectangle.

  • Spread apricot preserves evenly over the surface.

  • Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over the apricot layer.

  • Roll the dough tightly from the long edge into a log. Slice into 1-inch rounds.

  • Place rolls flat-side down on the baking sheet. Optionally, brush tops with melted butter.

  • Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden and flaky.

 

  • Let cool slightly before serving.
