How to make applesauce cinnamon rolls:

Filling:1/4 c. applesauce1/3 c. granulated sugar2 tsp. ground cinnamon1 c. powdered sugar1/2 tsp. vanilla extract1 Tbsp. skim milk Preheat oven to 375°. Spray two (8 or 9-inch) round pans with cooking spray. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and the yeast. In a small saucepan, combine applesauce, skim milk, sugar, butter and salt. Heat over medium heat and stir just until warm (120° to 130°) and butter is almost melted (milk will appear curdled). Add to flour mixture along with egg. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 3 minutes, using a spoon to stir in 2 1/4 cups flour. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour, up to 1/4 cup, to make a moderately soft dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 5 minutes). Shape dough into a ball. Place dough in a bowl sprayed lightly with cooking spray; turn once to grease surface. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume (about 1 hour). Punch dough down, turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. On lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 12-inch square. Spread 1/4 cup applesauce. Combine 1/3 cup sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over dough. Roll up and seal seams. Slice dough into 12 pieces. Arrange 6 rolls, cut side down, in each pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled (about 30 minutes). Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden. Cool 5 minutes. Invert onto serving plate. Drizzle with a mixture
