Ingredients
Scale
Peach Cobbler Filling
- 2 cups fresh peaches, sliced
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
Dough and Baking
- 1 package (16 oz) cinnamon roll dough
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Splash of milk (about 1-2 tablespoons)
Instructions
- Prepare Oven and Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare the cinnamon roll dough according to the package instructions or make your own dough as preferred.
- Mix Peach Filling: In a bowl, combine the sliced peaches with the brown sugar and let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes. This allows the peaches to release their juices and the sugar to dissolve slightly, enhancing the sweetness.
- Assemble Rolls: Roll out the dough on a floured surface to prevent sticking. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the brown sugar on top. Layer the peach mixture evenly over the sugar-covered dough.
- Roll and Slice: Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Using a sharp knife, cut the log into even slices approximately 1 to 2 inches thick to ensure consistent baking.
- Prepare for Baking: Grease a baking dish to prevent sticking, then arrange the cinnamon roll slices in the dish. Pour the heavy cream evenly over the rolls to keep them moist and add richness.
- Bake Rolls: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
- Make Glaze: While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a splash of milk until smooth to create the glaze.
- Glaze and Serve: Once the rolls come out of the oven and are still warm, drizzle the vanilla glaze generously over the top. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Use ripe, firm peaches for the best texture and sweetness.
- If fresh peaches are unavailable, frozen peaches (thawed and drained) can be used as a substitute.
- Adjust the thickness of the glaze by varying the amount of milk added.
- Serve warm for best taste and texture.
- Leftovers can be reheated gently in the microwave or oven.
