Ingredients

Scale

500 g all-purpose flour
120 g sugar
240 ml lukewarm milk
60 g unsalted melted butter
1 egg
900 g apples (Pink Lady, Fuji, or Royal Gala recommended)
170 g brown sugar
Ground cinnamon

Instructions

Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and yeast. In another bowl, whisk together milk, sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla. Combine wet and dry ingredients until mixed. Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Let rise in a greased bowl covered with a cloth for 1 hour.
Make the Filling: Peel and chop apples. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter, then add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, salt, and water. Cook until tender (about 5 minutes) and let cool.
Assemble the Rolls: Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Roll out dough into a rectangle; spread apple filling evenly over it. Roll tightly from one end to form a log shape. Slice into 10 equal pieces and place in a greased baking dish.
Bake: Cover rolls with cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes. Bake for 30–40 minutes until golden brown. Allow cooling slightly before serving warm.
