Instructions

Preheat and prepare dish: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch or 9-inch round baking dish thoroughly to prevent sticking.
Mix peach filling: In a bowl, combine the diced peaches with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg if using, and cornstarch if fresh peaches are used to thicken the mixture. Stir well to evenly coat the peaches with the spices and sugar.
Fill cinnamon rolls: Unroll each cinnamon roll slightly and spoon some of the peach mixture into the spiral center of each roll. Then gently roll them back up, sealing the peach filling inside.
Arrange and add toppings: Place the filled cinnamon rolls evenly in the prepared baking dish. Pour any remaining peach mixture around and over the rolls. Drizzle the melted butter over the top to enrich the flavor and encourage browning.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown and cooked through. If they start browning too fast, cover the dish loosely with foil to prevent burning.
Prepare icing and finish: Let the rolls cool slightly for a few minutes. Stir the optional vanilla extract into the reserved icing from the cinnamon roll package to add extra flavor. Drizzle this vanilla-infused icing generously over the warm rolls.
Serve: Serve the peach cobbler cinnamon rolls warm. Optionally, top with extra powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a dessert-style indulgence that elevates the dish.

Notes

If using fresh peaches, the cornstarch helps thicken the filling so it doesn’t become too watery during baking.
Covering the rolls loosely with foil helps avoid over-browning without affecting the bake time significantly.
The vanilla extract in the icing is optional but adds a lovely depth of flavor that complements the peach filling.
For a more decadent dessert, serve with vanilla ice cream or dust with powdered sugar.
This recipe can be made ahead by assembling the rolls and refrigerating them before baking, then bake when ready.
