Ultimate apple pie made with cinnamon roll crust and layers of cinnamon, sugar, pie filling, and a crumble topping!

Pillsbury Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie

This Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie is pretty comparable to my life. I tried to scoop the pieces of pie out in a way that you could see the crust in the pictures. Scoop after scoop I was failing at perfection. I was down to two pieces and finally got one out that wasn’t oozing so much over the crust that you couldn’t see it.

But still, as I tried to push the ooze around to make way for the camera to see enough of the crust it still just kept pouring out. I stood back and thought, ice cream will fix this. It wasn’t enough, so I brought in the big guns – Ghirardelli caramel sauce. Which by the way, is the best caramel sauce ever.

Much like my life, I try to do my best. Either I don’t feel like it’s good enough, or as I am ‘fixing’ myself I just expose a whole bunch of other things that need ‘fixing,’ too. To matters worse, I fix everything with ice cream!

Sigh. I am, and always will be, a recovering perfectionist and work in progress. Forever.

If you need more ooey-gooey, then make sure you try Cake Mix Caramel Brownies, Sticky Toffee Pudding, Caramel Rice Krispie Treats, Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars, or Caramel Apple Poke Cake, too!
