Apple Cinnamon Cream Cheese Roll Ups, apple cream cheese rolled inside cinnamon swirl bread and baked to crunchy, creamy deliciousness.
Happy fall, ya’ll! These Apple Cinnamon Cream Cheese Roll Ups are stuffed with apple pie filling and rolled in cinnamon sugar is the perfect fall treat!
These are great with a dipping sauce of your favorite kind but they are just as good on their own. We like to dip them in our Cinnamon Buttermilk Caramel Sauce, it is so so good!
We find any excuse to use this sauce and these Cream Cheese Roll Ups are the perfect excuse to use the sauce because they pair so well together.
What’s a better fall flavor combination than apples, cinnamon, and caramel? There really is no better combination, and there is no reason not to make these!
Apple season is my favorite because it is one of my favorite flavors to bake and create with and these Cream Cheese Roll Ups are one of our favorites, and super easy to make!
You know how I am with super easy and this recipe is just that! So I highly encourage you to make a batch of these for yourself and then you will see what I’m talking about.

DO I HAVE TO USE CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD?
No, you do not. We find that it gives a great extra cinnamon flavor to this recipe but if you do not like the bread or cannot find it you do not have to use it.
You can use any regular sandwich bread for this kind, white or wheat would be my other two suggestions for this. If you use any other kind, it might hinder the taste of this recipe.
CAN I USE MY OWN APPLE PIE FILLING?
Absolutely, if you like to make your own homemade the better! We use canned for this recipe for the ease but are not against using homemade at all.
You can also use cinnamon applesauce in a pinch. This might be runnier, but it will still work for this recipe.
HOW TO STORE:
I recommend storing any extra in an airtight container in the refrigerator where they will keep for up to 3-4 days.
These are definitely best when eaten right away! Plus that won’t be hard since they are so good!
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- You do not have to use cinnamon swirl bread for this recipe, you can use regular white or wheat.
