Upside-Down Caramel Apple Rolls

By srumbel

This is why this recipe grabbed my attention right away. It uses a can of pre-made cinnamon rolls. Hallelujah, Joy to the World, I can sleep AND have yummy rolls. Perfection. It takes these rolls and adds a little jazz with a homemade caramel sauce and apples. The original recipe says it serves 8. There is no way this served 8. I think we could have stretched it to 4, but you got it. Three of us polished this off without a problem. Enjoy!
