Easy Dutch Oven Apple Cinnamon Rolls
As I was reading one of the latest Sunset magazines, I fantasized about making my own homemade cinnamon rolls for our Yosemite trip. That lasted about 2 seconds before I realized I had a few hours left to pack and shop before we left for Yosemite. It would be just as fun to make cinnamon rolls out of the can…..why not? I did learn a couple of things while making this recipe for the first time and have adapted it accordingly. Basically, I didn’t cook the cinnamon rolls long enough before adding the apples on top and it took forever for the dough to cook all the way through ;( Needless to say, they were warm, tasty, easy and different.
