Ingredients
Scale
Peach Filling
- 2 cups fresh or canned peaches, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dough and Topping
- 1 package (16 oz) refrigerated cinnamon roll dough with icing
- Extra icing or powdered sugar for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the cinnamon rolls after baking.
- Cook Peach Filling: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced peaches, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and butter. Cook the mixture for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and becomes syrupy. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract to enhance flavor.
- Prepare Cinnamon Rolls: Open the refrigerated cinnamon roll dough and carefully separate the rolls. Reserve half of the peach mixture to layer later.
- Assemble the Dish: Spread half of the peach filling evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange the separated cinnamon rolls over the peach layer. Spoon the remaining peach filling over and around the cinnamon rolls, ensuring they are well coated with the syrupy mixture.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls turn golden brown and are cooked through.
- Add Icing and Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and drizzle the included icing over the warm cinnamon rolls. Alternatively, dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. Serve warm and enjoy.
Notes
- If using canned peaches, drain them thoroughly to avoid excess liquid that could make the rolls soggy.
- For added texture and flavor, sprinkle chopped pecans over the peach mixture before baking.
- Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to turn this treat into a decadent dessert.
