Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup diced apples
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
  • 1–2 tbsp milk (for icing)

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, heat milk and butter until warm. Remove from heat and stir in sugar and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes.

  6. Roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread softened butter, then sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, and diced apples.
  7. Roll the dough tightly and cut into 12 equal pieces.
  8. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
