These cinnamon roll pumpkin pie bites are easy and tasty. (Stacey Little / Southern Bite)
Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Serves: 18
Ingredients
- 1 (12.4-ounce/8-count) tube canned cinnamon rolls
- 1 cup canned plain pumpkin
- 1 egg
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lightly spray the wells of a 12-count muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Open the cinnamon rolls and slice each one in half across, making two thinner cinnamon rolls. Press a cinnamon roll half in the bottom of each well in the muffin tin and about one-third of the way up the sides.
- In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin, egg, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla. Scoop a heaping tablespoonful of the pumpkin mixture into the center of each cinnamon roll.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the cinnamon roll crust is a deep golden brown and the pie filling is set. Cool on a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining cinnamon rolls and filling. Once cool, top with whipped cream or the cinnamon roll icing, if desired.
