Ingredients
Pie Crust
- 1 refrigerated pie crust
Cinnamon Roll Filling
- 1 can refrigerated cinnamon rolls (with icing)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the pie.
- Prepare Pie Crust: Fit the refrigerated pie crust into a standard 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently to the edges for even coverage.
- Cut Cinnamon Rolls: Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters to create bite-sized pieces that will fit nicely into the pie crust.
- Toss Cinnamon Rolls: In a mixing bowl, combine the quartered cinnamon rolls with the brown sugar, melted butter, and ground cinnamon. Toss well to coat the rolls evenly with the mixture.
- Fill Pie Crust: Spread the coated cinnamon roll pieces evenly into the prepared pie crust, arranging them so they fill the crust nicely.
- Bake the Pie: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cinnamon roll filling is cooked through and bubbling.
- Drizzle Icing: Remove the pie from the oven and while slightly warm, drizzle the provided cinnamon roll icing over the top to add sweetness and a creamy finish.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving warm for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can use store-bought icing or make a simple glaze with powdered sugar and milk if preferred.
- If you want a crunchier crust, pre-bake the pie crust for 5-7 minutes before adding the cinnamon roll mixture.
- For added texture, consider sprinkling chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts inside the filling.
- Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert option.
