German apple cinnamon rolls are an irresistible German pastry made from a fluffy yeast dough that's rolled up with crisp apples.Unlike American apple cinnamon rolls, they are baked spread out. Instead of topping them with cream cheese frosting, they are brushed with melted butter before and after baking, and then pressed into a bowl of cinnamon sugar. May I just say the perfect fall afternoon treat to enjoy on a picnic blanket with a cup of steaming coffee?Looking for German cinnamon rolls from Hamburg? Try my Franzbrötchen (by the way, they would be perfect with added apple too!).
