What’s in 2 Ingredient Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler?
Cinnamon Rolls: I’m a big fan of using Pillsbury cinnamon rolls for this recipe. They’re fluffy, sweet, and just perfectly spiced. Plus, the icing is a delightful cherry on top (literally!).
Apple Pie Filling: I usually go for Lucky Leaf apple pie filling as it’s packed with flavor and has just the right sweetness. Fresh apples can work in a pinch if you want to get fancy, but let’s be honest—this cobbler is all about simplicity!
Is 2 Ingredient Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler Good for You?
Well, let’s get real—this isn’t exactly your health-food-101 kind of dessert. But here’s why it’s a treat worth indulging in now and then:
Cinnamon Rolls: They can be a guilty pleasure, but the cinnamon can potentially help regulate blood sugar levels and is loved for its anti-inflammatory properties (in moderation, of course!).
Apple Pie Filling: Apples are a good source of dietary fiber, which is great for digestion. Plus, who doesn’t love the idea of bringing a bit of fruit into the mix?
That said, this dessert is definitely more of a sweet treat than a health boost. Perhaps reserve it for a special occasion, or just enjoy in moderation!

How to Make 2 Ingredient Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler?
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Spray a 9×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray to keep the cobbler from sticking.
3. Pour the can of apple pie filling evenly into the bottom of the prepared dish.
4. Open the can of cinnamon rolls, and cut each roll into quarters (this part is a bit therapeutic if you ask me!).
5. Scatter the quartered cinnamon rolls over the apple pie filling, making sure to distribute them as evenly as possible.
6. Bake in your preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown and delicious—your kitchen will smell amazing!
7. Once out of the oven, drizzle the icing from the cinnamon roll package over the warm cobbler.
8. Let it cool slightly before serving—if you can wait! And if you’re feeling indulgent, serve it warm topped with a glorious scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Sweet Tips and Variations
– If you want to jazz it up a bit, consider sprinkling some extra cinnamon on top before baking. It adds a lovely aroma and enhances the flavor!
– For some crunch, throw in a handful of chopped pecans or walnuts into the apple filling.
– This cobbler is best served warm, but if there are any leftovers (big if!) you can reheat them the next day in the microwave for a quick dessert.
I can’t wait for you to try this delightful dessert! It combines the comforting flavors of apple pie with warm cinnamon rolls, and it’s such a crowd-pleaser. Do me a favor: when you make it, let me know how it turns out! Happy baking!
