Editor's Notes About This Apple Cider Cinnamon Roll Cake Recipe:

• You can use the same dough to make traditional cinnamon rolls.
• You can also stuff them with apple butter or even pumpkin butter. The result is incredibly good too!
• These rolls are soft and fluffy and spicy and sweet all at the same time.
• You can glaze it too! I used a simple icing made with confectioners sugar a bit of milk and vanilla mixed together until it was pourable.

Apple Cider Cinnamon Roll Cake Recipe Directions:

In a bowl mix the apple cider and the butter together. Add the applesauce, brown sugar, egg, cinnamon, nutmeg and dry yeast.

Add the flour and with the help of a spatula, stir until incorporated.

Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 3 minutes, until a soft and elastic dough forms. Return to the bowl and cover with a cloth. Let it rise for 1 hour.

Gently punch the dough down to deflate it and return it to a floured surface. Roll the dough into a 8x10 inch rectangle. Spread the butter onto the dough and sprinkle with the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Using a sharp knife cut the dough into five 2 inch wide strips. Roll up one strip and place in the center of the skillet. Coil the remaining strips around the first one, shaping a giant cinnamon roll.

Cover the skillet with a cloth and let it rest for 40 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Take the cinnamon roll to the oven and bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

I know that many people still like to print out recipes and keep them in a recipe binder, or simply have the printed recipe sitting in front of them when it comes time to cook! 

Sometimes it is just easier to go off a recipe when it is printed right in front of you. Who wants to swipe their screen on their phone or tablet when their hands are greasy? So I love offering this option as well!
