Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 10-12 cavity muffin tin generously with butter.
- In a medium saucepan, combine chopped apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat until apples are tender and the mixture is fragrant. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Gently unroll each cinnamon roll. Press each into a greased muffin tin cavity, creating a well in the center for filling.
- Spoon 2 tablespoons of the apple filling into each cinnamon roll well, dividing it evenly among the rolls.
- Lightly cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the rolls are golden and cooked through.
- For the glaze, beat together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, caramel sauce, and milk until smooth and creamy.
- Let the cinnamon rolls cool slightly before drizzling with caramel glaze.
