Ingredients

  • 25 frozen Rhodes rolls, (see thawing options included in instructions)
  • 1 recipe homemade apple pie filling, or 1 can (21 ounces) store-bought, chopped, divided
  • 1 large egg, beaten

Streusel Topping

Glaze

  • 1 cup (125 g) confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk

Instructions

  • Remove the Rhodes rolls from the package. Place frozen rolls onto a large greased baking sheet. Cover with greased plastic wrap.
  • To thaw the rolls, you can either place them on the counter to thaw and rise or let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
    Countertop Thaw: Place the baking sheet in a warm location and allow them to thaw and rise in the pan. They should be doubled in size. From frozen, that will take between 3-5 hours.
    Overnight Thaw: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning, take the rolls out of the refrigerator and place them in a warm location to rise until doubled (about 1-2 hours).
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a clean baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Working one roll at a time, flatten the roll on the counter to about 3 inches wide. Add 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling to the center. Wrap dough around the filling, pinching the edges to seal and form a ball. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
  • Arrange the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet in a circular pattern. Then, brush rolls with the beaten egg. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the melted butter to the flour mixture. Mix with a fork until the mixture is combined.
  • Top the apple-filled rolls with the streusel topping. Bake until golden brown, about 30-34 minutes.
  • Set the baked rolls aside to cool slightly.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar and milk.
  • While the apple wreath is still slightly warm, evenly pour glaze on the top.
  • Let the wreath cool slightly before serving.
