Luckily, I can make this upside-down apple cinnamon roll in the microwave, in one dish, in 2 minutes! Yes, I said TWO minutes! Two minutes is all it takes to get this ooey, gooey, apple dessert! It’s almost too good to be true, right?

Well, it’s not! Rhodes Bake-N-Serv® has come out with a new product: Microwave Cinnamon Rolls. Technically, they only take 60 seconds when you make them all by themselves (the apple-cinnamon mixture adds one extra minute). There are six cinnamon rolls in a package, and there are even six individual cream cheese frosting packets, so you really can only make one at a time if you need/want to. Awesome!

This recipe is easy enough for the kids to make, and they will love to make their own individual dessert!

YieldsYields1 serving

Ingredients

• ▢ 1 Tablespoon (14 g) butter
• ▢ 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
• ▢ ¼ tsp cornstarch
• ▢ ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
• ▢ ½ tsp lemon juice
• ▢ ¼ to ½ of an apple, peeled and thinly sliced
• ▢ 1 Rhodes Microwaveable Cinnamon Roll

Instructions

 

• Place 1 Tablespoon of butter in a 3½ to 4-inch microwave-safe ramekin. Melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds, or until melted.
• To the melted butter, add 1 Tablespoon brown sugar, ¼ tsp cornstarch, ¼ tsp cinnamon, and ½ tsp lemon juice. Stir until combined.
• Peel an apple and slice it thin. Use about ¼ to ½ of the apple slices to layer in the bottom of the ramekin with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
• Place one of the Rhodes Microwave Cinnamon Rolls on top of the sliced apples.
• Cook in the microwave for approximately 2 minutes until the cinnamon roll puffs up and bakes completely. It should almost touch the sides of the dish.
• Using a hot pad, immediately remove the dish from the microwave and invert it onto a plate. Enjoy while warm!
• Optional: Drizzle one of the cream cheese frosting packets that come with the cinnamon rolls on top, for an extra sweet upside-down apple cinnamon roll.
