Ingredients:
For the Dough:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
For the Filling:
- 1 1/2 cups diced fresh peaches
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
For the Frosting:
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
Directions:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and yeast. In another bowl, mix warm milk, melted butter, and salt. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Spread softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly on top. Add the diced peaches evenly over the sugar mixture.
- Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 12 even slices and place them in a greased baking dish. Cover and let rise for an additional 30 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- While the rolls are baking, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until creamy. Add vanilla extract and heavy cream, and mix until well combined.
- Spread the frosting over the warm cinnamon rolls and serve.

- What ingredients are needed for Spiced Peach Cobbler Cinnamon Rolls?
- Key ingredients typically include all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, warm milk, granulated sugar, unsalted butter, eggs, salt, canned or fresh peaches, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. For the creamy frosting, you’ll need cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream or milk.
- How do I make the dough for the cinnamon rolls?
- Start by dissolving the yeast in warm milk with a pinch of sugar and let it sit until frothy. In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture, eggs, and melted butter, then knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, which typically takes about 1-2 hours.
- How do I prepare the peach filling for the cinnamon rolls?
- If using canned peaches, drain and chop them into small pieces. If using fresh peaches, peel and chop them. In a saucepan, cook the peaches with brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a bit of cornstarch until the mixture thickens. Let the peach filling cool before spreading it over the rolled-out dough.
- How do I assemble and bake the cinnamon rolls?
- Roll out the risen dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle. Spread the cooled peach filling evenly over the dough. Roll up the dough tightly from one long edge to the other to form a log. Cut the log into equal-sized rolls and place them in a greased baking dish. Allow the rolls to rise again for about 30-45 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- How do I make the luscious creamy frosting for the cinnamon rolls?
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined. Gradually add heavy cream or milk to achieve the desired consistency. The frosting should be thick but spreadable. Once the cinnamon rolls are slightly cooled, spread the frosting generously over the top.
