Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Open the can of cinnamon rolls, and set aside the icing packets.
  3. Cut each roll into four pieces and place them in a large bowl.
  4. Add the apple pie filling and chopped apples to the bowl, gently stir until cinnamon rolls are coated.
  5. Transfer the mixture into a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or another oven-safe dish, spreading it out evenly.
Baking
  1. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until rolls are golden brown.
  2. If the rolls are browning too quickly, tent them with aluminum foil during the last 5 minutes.
Serving
  1. Let it cool for a moment, then serve warm topped with vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Notes

Time-saving Trick: Use pre-chopped apples from the grocery store to save time on prep! If rolls seem doughy in the center, bake a little longer. Try adding chopped pecans or walnuts for a nutty crunch!
