Easy Recipes-Cinnamon Roll Dutch Apple Pie-The Mom Maven

This past Sunday our small group had Thanksgiving dinner together. I was in charge of dessert. I headed straight to my Tasty Treats Pinterest board to find a recipe to try. I decided to make Cinnamon Roll Dutch Apple Pie which I had pinned from Pillsbury.com. I LOVE Dutch Apple Pie and using Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls for the crust sounded heavenly! This pie was so delicious and it is one of my easy recipes. I wanted to make sure you had the recipe in case you wanted to add it to your Thanksgiving dinner menu.

Cinnamon Roll Dutch Apple Pie Crust

I only used about 4 of the Granny Smith apples because the pie was too full. This was probably because I don’t own a 9″ glass pie plate so I used an aluminium pie plate.

Cinnamon Roll Dutch Apple Pie Filling

I forgot the icing at home so we didn’t use it on our pie. We did microwave the slices and serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
