It has really helped my family a lot and I have even started collecting food for food storage it is so fantastic. I feel very blessed that we are able to have so much food in our house and if something does happen like another lay off or something I know that we will be ok for a couple of months.

Caramel Apple Sticky Buns

I got this recipe from a blog that pioneer woman and I have to say that it was very good. This blog had the recipe for the actual rolls but I used rhodes cinnamon rolls.

Caramel Topping:
1 stick of butter
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon dark brown corn syrup
2 tablespoons cream
2 tablespoons of apple juice (optional)
1 Granny smith apple, peeled and finely diced

Add 1 stick of butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, cream and optional apple juice.

Allow to melt over low heat until totally combined. Let boil for a few seconds then remove from heat and set aside.


peel and finely chop the apple


In a round pan add half of the caramel and all of the apples.

This is were I added the rhodes rolls cinnamon rolls and then I added the rest of the caramel sauce over the top.

Bake at 375 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes, covered in foil for the first 25 minutes. I I then added the frosting on top of everything and it was yummy!!

My Review:

I loved these they were so good and I will be making them again for sure.
