Ingredients

• 1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup apple pie filling

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5 minutes, until the yeast is foamy.
2. Add the butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir until combined.
3. Add the flour and salt to the bowl. Stir until the dough comes together and forms a ball.
4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 5-7 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6. While the dough is rising, prepare the apple pie filling. In a medium saucepan, combine the apple pie filling, sugar, and cinnamon. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the apples are softened.
7. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
8. Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Roll out each half into a 12×10 inch rectangle. Spread the apple pie filling over the dough. Roll up the dough starting from the long side. Cut each roll into 12 pieces.
9. Place the cinnamon rolls in the prepared baking pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
10. Bake the cinnamon rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
11. Let the cinnamon rolls cool for a few minutes before frosting.
12. To make the frosting, combine the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Beat until smooth. Frost the cinnamon rolls and serve.
