by

These soft cinnamon rolls are filled with spiced peaches and topped with a rich, creamy frosting. Perfect for breakfast or dessert!

Ingredients:

For the dough:

  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • ½ cup warm milk
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon salt

For the peach filling:

  • 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

For the creamy frosting:

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Make the dough: In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, melted butter, egg, and yeast mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms. Knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let the dough rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  2. Prepare the peach filling: In a bowl, combine the diced peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Stir to mix well.
  3. Roll out the dough: Once risen, roll out the dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
  4. Spread the filling: Brush the dough with melted butter and evenly spread the peach mixture over the dough.
  5. Roll and slice: Roll the dough tightly from one long edge to the other to form a log. Slice the log into 12 equal rolls and place them in a greased baking dish. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  6. Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Make the frosting: In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  8. Frost and serve: Spread the creamy frosting over the warm rolls and enjoy your delicious spiced peach cobbler cinnamon rolls!

Additional Tips:

  • Serving suggestion: Pair with fresh peaches or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.
  • Variations: Feel free to experiment with other fruits like apples or berries for different flavor profiles.

FAQs About Spiced Peach Cobbler Cinnamon Rolls:

  1. Can I use frozen peaches?

    Yes! Assemble the rolls, cover them tightly, and refrigerate overnight. Allow them to come to room temperature and rise before baking.
  4. What if I don’t have heavy cream?
