Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Cinnamon Roll Dough: Using a can of refrigerated dough is super convenient, but if you’re feeling adventurous, you can make your own dough from scratch. Just remember it takes a bit longer!
Peaches: Fresh peaches add a nice juicy touch. If they’re out of season, use canned peaches, but make sure to drain them well. You can use other fruits like apricots or even apples if needed.
Granulated Sugar: This adds sweetness, but you could easily use brown sugar for a deeper flavor. Honey or maple syrup can also be fun alternatives, though you’d need to adjust the quantity to taste.
Cinnamon: Essential for that comforting taste! If you love spice, feel free to mix in a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth.
How to Ensure Perfectly Rolled Cinnamon Rolls?
Rolling the dough properly is key to getting fluffy cinnamon rolls. Here’s how to do it right:
- After unrolling the dough, keep it flat and avoid stretching it too much.
- Spread the filling evenly across the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for better sealing.
- Tightly roll it back up, starting from one end, to ensure a better rise and structure. Pinch the seam to seal it.
With a little practice, you’ll have perfect rolls every time! Enjoy your baking adventures!

How Much Time Will You Need?
This recipe takes about 10 minutes of prep time and 20-25 minutes of baking. So, in total, you’ll spend about 35-40 minutes from start to finish. Quick and delicious!
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare the Oven and Pan:
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it’s warming up, lightly grease a 9-inch round baking pan or pie dish so your rolls won’t stick.
2. Mix the Peach Filling:
In a small bowl, combine the chopped peaches with the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Stir it gently until the peaches are coated nicely. This will be the sweet filling for your rolls!
3. Unroll the Cinnamon Roll Dough:
Take the can of refrigerated cinnamon rolls and open it carefully. Unroll each piece individually—take your time here; we want to keep them nice and intact!
4. Add Butter and Vanilla:
Brush each unrolled dough piece lightly with the melted butter, and then drizzle the vanilla extract over. This adds a wonderful flavor that pairs beautifully with the peaches!
5. Sprinkle the Peach Mixture:
Evenly sprinkle the peach mixture over each piece of dough, pressing lightly as you go to help it stick. You want every bite to have that juicy peach goodness.
6. Roll and Place into the Pan:
Now, carefully roll the dough back up tightly, starting from one end. Then place them cut side down in the prepared baking pan, arranging them snugly together. Each roll should hug the next!
7. Bake the Rolls:
Pop your pan into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on them until they turn a lovely golden brown and are fully cooked. Your kitchen will smell amazing!
8. Cool and Drizzle:
Once they’re baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly. After that, drizzle the icing that comes with the cinnamon roll package over the warm rolls.
9. (Optional) Make a Sweet Glaze:
If you want to take your rolls up a notch, mix the powdered sugar with milk to create a simple glaze. Drizzle this over the rolls just before serving for a sweet finishing touch.
10. Serve and Enjoy!
These rolls are best served warm. Enjoy every bite of your delicious peach cobbler cinnamon rolls!
FAQ: Easy Peach Cobbler Cinnamon Rolls
Can I Use Frozen Peaches for This Recipe?
Absolutely! Just make sure to thaw and drain the frozen peaches before using them to avoid excess moisture. You can speed up the thawing process by placing them in a bowl of warm water for about 10-15 minutes, then draining well.
Can I Make These Cinnamon Rolls Ahead of Time?
Yes, you can prepare the rolls and fill them the night before. Just cover the prepared rolls in the baking pan with plastic wrap and store them in the fridge. In the morning, let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking, then follow the baking instructions as usual!
How Should I Store Leftover Cinnamon Rolls?
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, pop them in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds, or until warmed through. You can also wrap them in foil and warm them in the oven.
What Can I Use Instead of Cinnamon Roll Dough?
If you want a homemade option, you can use your favorite biscuit or scone dough for a different twist. Just make sure the dough is slightly sweet; otherwise, you may want to add a little sugar to the mixture.
