Ingredient

2 Large (or 3 small) Apples
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup water
2 packages Immaculate Baking Co.™ Organic Cinnamon Rolls Dough
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 stick butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

Step 1
PREPARE APPLE COMPOTE

Step 2
Add chopped apples, lemon juice & water to a small saucepan Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer and cover Simmer for 10 minutes and then remove the top.

Step 3
Continue to simmer & mash with a fork or potato masher until water has evaporated and apples are mashed (about 5 more minutes) Add brown sugar, butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon & nutmeg and continue cooking over low heat until butter has completely melted.

Step 4
MEANWHILE… ASSEMBLE MONKEY BREAD

Step 5
Preheat oven to 350°F Spray a bundt pan with cooking spray

Step 6
Open cinnamon rolls according to package instructions Cut each roll into 6 pieces

Step 7
Combine granulated sugar, the rest of the cinnamon & nutmeg in a plastic bag Toss cinnamon roll pieces in the bag with sugar until evenly coated (you may need to do in 2 batches)

Step 8
Add half of the cinnamon rolls to the bundt pan. Pour half of the apple compote mixture over the cinnamon roll pieces Add the remaining cinnamon roll pieces & another layer of apple compote on top

Step 9
BAKE: Bake for 40-50 minutes until top pieces are nicely browned and center feels set. (You may want to place a cookie sheet on the lower oven rack in case there is any spill-over while baking.) Cool for 5 minutes and then invert on to a serving plate. Drizzle with icing & enjoy!

Recipe Tips

You may want to place a cookie sheet on the lower oven rack while baking the monkey bread in case there is any spill-over as it rises.
