APPLE FILLED PULL-APART LOAF

Category: Quick Breads

16 frozen dinner rolls, thawed
2 medium size Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Icing
1 cup confectioners sugar
3-4 tsp water
1/2 tsp vanilla and almond extract

Cut rolls in half. Combine apples, sugar, nuts and cinnamon. Flatten each roll half into a 2-3-inch circle. Place 1 tsp apple mixture in center of each dough circle. Pinch edges together to seal, forming a ball. Place filled balls in a sprayed loaf pan.

Spoon remaining apple mixture evenly over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until double. Remove wrap and bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes. Cover with foil last 10 minutes of baking to prevent over browning. Cool for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and place on wire rack to cool. Combine icing ingredients and drizzle over loaf.
