This Mini Apple Cinnamon Pecan Cobbler is the perfect Fall treat, and you can whip it up in just minutes using store-bought Cinnamon Roll Dough.
Fall is my favorite season, and though it has been incredibly hot here in New England, I'm ready for Fall. One of our favorite activities to do as a family is go apple picking. Here in New Hampshire there are tons of wonderful orchards to choose from. It seems every year we are overzealous in the amount of apples we pick. We end up with tons and tons of apples.
From pie to quick bread and more, I love making a variety of delicious baked goods and freezing quite a few of them. You can find a link to other great recipes at the bottom of this post.
In the mean time, let me tell you about this amazing Apple Cinnamon Pecan Cobbler. It's actually made in ramekins so each person has their own mini dessert, which is so fun. Plus, it's a good size portion for the kiddos. Speaking of which, this is a great recipe to make with them. They can help mix the apples and place the dough. Sticky fingers are a small price to pay for quality family time, don't you agree?
Mini Apple Cinnamon Pecan Cobbler
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups apples, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
- 1 tablespoon flour
- butter
- 4 Microwave Cinnamon Rolls, thawed
- Topping:
- 4 teaspoons chopped pecans
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon water
- confectioners sugar
Instructions
In a small bowl or large measuring cup, combine the apples with the sugars, seasoning mix, and flour. Toss to coat the apples well.
I like to use my own homemade apple pie spice mix. It's a great money saver to make it yourself, and tastes amazing in cookies, pies, and even pancake mix!
Butter the insides and rim of 4 ramekins. I love these 4 mini casserole dishes that come with tiny lids. They make for a beautiful presentation! Fill each dish with a quarter of the apple mixture.
Next, take the thawed microwave cinnamon rolls and cut each into four pieces.
Top each dish with the 4 pieces, pressing down slightly into the corners. Be sure all of the apples are covered with the dough.
Bake at 350-degrees for 15-20 minutes until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let rest.
To make the topping, combine the water and cinnamon and enough confectioner's sugar to make a thick glaze. Drizzle it over the top of the warm cobblers. Sprinkle each with a teaspoon of pecans.
Serve warm and enjoy! These are delicious as is, or topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
