Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Cheesecake Buns

  • Begin by rolling out your pre-made dough on a lightly floured surface until it reaches about ¼ inch in thickness. Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to cut the dough into rectangles or circles.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Fold in the diced apples, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Place a generous spoonful of cheesecake filling in the center of each piece of cut dough. Roll the dough around the filling and pinch the edges to seal them securely.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cubed butter; mix until crumbly. Sprinkle the crumble mixture over each filled bun.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), arrange buns on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  • While baking, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth to create the glaze.
  • Once buns are out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over each warm bun.
  • Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Apple Cheesecake Buns.

Notes

Ensure the dough is chilled before rolling out and that cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
