Dough Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- Melt butter and allow to cool slightly
- Sift all dry ingredients and then with the mixer on low, slowly pour in buttermilk, vanilla and melted butter
- Knead on low-medium speed until a smooth dough forms
- Lightly flour work surface and knead dough for another 4-5 minutes, sprinkling flour as needed until the dough is soft and smooth. Put aside to rest while preparing filling
Filling Instructions:
- Combine butter, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice blend and salt in a bowl and stir together. Add in the small JUICI apple dices along with juice from lemon and set aside
- Now roll dough out to a large rectangle, leaving about a ½ border along the outside. Take a small spoon or spatula and spread filling across the dough.
- Once filling is spread across the dough, roll the dough into a long pinwheel, pinching in the sides to hold in the contents. If any apple dices escape the log during this process, just tuck them back in or garnish extra on the top of the rolls
- Using a large serrated knife, cut the log into 8 equal portions and arrange in your baking pan. An 8-9 inch cast iron skillet works great too. Press down slightly to flatten the rolls.
- Bake at 375 degrees for about 25 minutes or until golden and gooey
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly, and drizzle Cinnamon Cream Cheese Icing
Icing Instructions:
- Whisk together cream cheese and butter until smooth.
- Add vanilla, salt, cinnamon and powdered sugar until fully blended.
- Add milk slowly, mixing in between small pours. Icing should have a thick, creamy consistency.
- Pour over finished, warm rolls and enjoy!
