glazed apple daisy
Another of our old favorites -- this one comes from an old Pampered Chef Seasons pamphlet. I've modified it, taking out all the use-this-special-device stuff. I also grew up greasing and SUGARING the pan (rather than flour), so that's in there, as well. This is not really a super-sweet dessert -- it's relying on the cinnamon rolls and natural sweeteners in the orange juice to do that.

Arrange cut halves in a circle, pinwheel fashion, leaving center open. Gently press cinnamon rolls together with fingers to seal. Roll dough out to edge of pan. -
Step 2Mix apple, walnut, and 3 teaspoons of orange juice. Spread apple mixture evenly over cinnamon rolls. Bake 25 - 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 4**Note** -- I used seasonal flavored (pumpkin) cinnamon rolls and they were very good! Also, per my first picture, I tried rolling the cinnamon rolls out on a pastry sheet -- and it worked well. . . Until I tried to put it in a pan, then it fell apart.
