Apple Cider Cinnamon Roll Cake

Author Jennifer

Ingredients

  • Cup apple cider
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted
  • ½ Cup unsweetened applesauce
  • ¼ Cup brown sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 3 teaspoon instant dry yeast
  • 3 Cups flour
  • Apple Cider Cinnamon Roll Cake Recipe Filling:
  • ¼ Cup butter
  • ½ Cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

  • 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.
