    These peach cobbler cinnamon rolls are perfect to make when peaches are in season! They are gooey and soft rolls, full of cinnamon filling, peach jam, and a cinnamon crumb topping. The rolls are topped with a cream cheese icing. They taste just like a peach cobbler inside a cinnamon roll.

    These peach cobbler cinnamon rolls are SO good. You can use either fresh peaches or frozen peaches for this recipe. So, you can make this any time of year, they are perfect for summer or for the holidays!

    These rolls are so gooey and soft full of a strong cinnamon flavor mixed with peaches. The peach cobbler part, the peach jam is baked a little chunky and it is topped with streusel.

    Why This Recipe Works

    • Soft cinnamon rolls- These rolls are super gooey and soft. Your fork will just melt into them! The reason is because room temperature butter get cuts into the dry ingredients like you would with pie dough. When it bakes, the butter melts making the rolls really soft.
    • Cinnamon filling- You have to have a cinnamon filling! This has butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon!
    • Homemade peach jam- Peach jam is SO good. It can be made with fresh peaches or frozen peaches. You can also just buy peach jam from the store to make it easier too.
    • Cinnamon crumb topping- This what you would normally find on top of a peach cobbler. However, I put it inside the cinnamon rolls so it gives it a little crunch and texture.
    • Peach cream cheese icing- You can't have cinnamon rolls without the cream cheese icing!

    Ingredient Notes

    Here are some notes on the ingredients. For a full list of ingredients, check out the recipe card below.

    • Milk- Use any kind of milk, just make sure it is warmed to 110F.
    • Yeast- You can use active dry yeast or fast rise yeast, use 1 packet.
    • Eggs- Pull the large eggs out 2 hours before baking.
    • Unsalted butter- Pull this out 2 hours before baking so it is softened.
    • Brown sugar- I used light brown sugar.
    • Peaches- Use 1lb of peaches either fresh or frozen.
    • Cream cheese- Use full fat cream cheese. Pull this out 2 hours before baking so it is room temperature.
    • Powdered sugar- Make sure to sift this to avoid a gritty icing.

    Step By Step Instructions- Dough

    Here is how to make and bake the dough for the cinnamon rolls. This recipe uses a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment. For instructions about making by hand, see the recipe notes.

    STEP 1: Prepare the yeast. First, heat the milk to 110F. Then, sprinkle in the yeast and let it sit for 10 minutes. The yeast will bubble and foam.

    STEP 2: Cut in the butter. In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, salt, and white sugar. Pour in the room temperature butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to cut the butter into a size of a pea.

    STEP 3: Add wet ingredients. Add the yeast mixture and eggs to the flour mixture. Place on the mixer and mix on low speed until a dough starts to form. Switch to medium speed and knead for 5 minutes.

    STEP 4: Rise. Place the dough into a large bowl that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rise for 1 hour until doubled in size in a warm place.

    Step By Step Instructions- Fillings

    STEP 1: Peach jam. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine juicy peaches, sugar, and lemon juice. Heat for 10-15 minutes for the juice from the peaches to release and it thickens into a jam.

    Cool completely before using.

    STEP 2: Cinnamon crumb topping. In a medium bowl, mix the brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, flour, salt, and melted butter together. Combine using a fork.

    STEP 3: Bake. Spread the topping over a baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes. Let it cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking it into small pieces.

    STEP 4: Cinnamon filling. Using a mixer, beat the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. It should be like a paste.

    Assembling The Rolls

    STEP 1: Roll. Use a rolling pin to roll the cinnamon roll dough out on a lightly floured surface. Roll it into a large rectangle.

    STEP 2: Spread the fillings. First, spread the cinnamon filling over the dough. Use an offset spatula to spread it evenly. Then, spread 1 cup of the peach mixture and sprinkle half of the cinnamon crumb topping.

    STEP 3: Roll into a log. Start on the short side and roll the dough into a log. This will be a messy experience! Keep going!

    Then, use a serrated knife to cut off the uneven ends. Then, cut into 12 equal rolls and place into a 9X13-inch baking pan.

    STEP 4: Rise again. Cover the pan with a kitchen towel and rise for the second time for 20 minutes.

    STEP 5: Bake. Bake the rolls for 23-26 minutes until the tops are golden brown.

    Expert Baking Tips

    • You can make these by hand! First, mix the dough using a rubber spatula. Then, knead on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes. The dough should be very soft and slightly tacky.
    • In order for the yeast to activate, the milk needs to be warmed to 110F. If it is too hot, it will kill the yeast. If the milk is too cold, then the yeast won't activate. So, use a kitchen thermometer.
    • Overnight dough- Once you are done kneading the dough. Place in a large bowl sprayed with nonstick spray. Then, cover with plastic wrap. Store in the fridge overnight. It needs to chill for a max of 16 hours. Then in the next morning, you can pull it out and roll up the cinnamon rolls. Let it rise for 1 hour instead of the 20 minutes.

      Just made these today and they are INCREDIBLE!!!! My husband is a baked goods connoisseur and said these are the best thing he's ever eaten. Cutting butter into the flour before m mixing the dough makes a huge difference. Every part of the recipe is well thought out and easy to follow. If you are even remotely considering making these, DO IT TODAY!!
