Prep Time30 Minutes

Cook Time25 Minutes
Ingredients
2¾ cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
¼ cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup Breyers Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream melted
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast
1 large egg, room temperature
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
3 medium apples, peeled and sliced into thin wedges
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 container (1.5 qt) Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream
Caramel sauce, for serving
Directions
- Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar and salt. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine melted Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream and butter. Heat until butter is melted and the mixture reaches about 110°F. Whisk in yeast until dissolved.
- Pour warm mixture into dry ingredients and add the egg. Stir with a rubber spatula or use a stand mixer with a paddle or dough hook attachment on medium speed. Mix until a soft dough comes together.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, until smooth and soft. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Fill the rolls: Roll dough into approximately a 14 x 8 inch rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly over the dough. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle evenly over the butter. Starting with a long edge, tightly roll the dough into a 14 inch log. Cut into 12 even rolls.
- For individual servings, place each roll in its own lightly greased 6 inch cast iron skillet, leaving room around the roll for the spiced apples. For a crowd, divide the rolls between two lightly greased 13 x 9 inch baking dishes, placing 6 rolls in each and spacing them apart to leave plenty of room for the spiced apples.
- Cover and allow the rolls to rise in a warm place for 60 to 90 minutes, or until nearly doubled in size.
- Prepare the spiced apples: In a large bowl, combine the apples, melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Once the rolls have risen, arrange the spiced apples around the rolls, dividing them evenly among the individual skillets or between the two 13 x 9 inch baking dishes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are lightly golden brown and the apples are tender. Let cool slightly. Top each warm cinnamon roll with a scoop of Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream and drizzle with caramel sauce, if desired.
Note: This recipe can be prepared as individual servings in 6 inch cast iron skillets or, for a crowd, divided between two 13 x 9 inch baking dishes with plenty of room for the spiced apples around eac
