Ohhh yes 😏🍎🍂 Caramel Apple Cinnamon Roll Lasagna—basically dessert heaven layered in a pan. Sweet, gooey, slightly tart, and ridiculously indulgent. Here’s a killer version.
🍎🍯 Caramel Apple Cinnamon Roll Lasagna
Ingredients
- 2 cans (8–12 rolls each) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
- 3–4 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 2–3 tbsp butter
- 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

- Layer half of the cinnamon roll pieces in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Spread half the cooked apples over them. Drizzle some caramel sauce.
- Repeat with remaining cinnamon rolls and apples.
- Bake
- Cover with foil and bake 20–25 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake an additional 10 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
- Finish
- Drizzle remaining caramel sauce on top.
- Optional: sprinkle chopped nuts.
- Cool 5–10 minutes before serving (but who can wait 😏).
🔥 Pro Tips
- Caramel: Use thick caramel for “ooey-gooey” layers; drizzle extra just before serving.
- Apples: Granny Smith adds tartness; Honeycrisp or Fuji adds sweetness.
- Cinnamon rolls: Use large rolls for more layers, mini rolls for more coverage.
- Extra indulgence: Mix cream cheese frosting into layers or dollop on top.
This is party dessert-level energy—perfect for brunch, holidays, or just a “I deserve this” moment.
If you want, I can make a version that’s:
- Individual servings in ramekins
- Caramel apple cinnamon roll bread pudding style
- Less sweet / lighter
- Extra crunchy topping
Do you want this classic gooey or crispy edges & caramel overload?
