In a large mixing bowl, combine the ingredients for the brioche dough, mixing until smooth. Allow to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-2 hours.

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook until apples soften, about 5-7 minutes, then cool.

Roll out the brioche dough on a floured surface into a rectangle. Spread the filling mixture, layer on apple filling, and sprinkle with pecans. Roll tightly and slice into sections.

Place the cut rolls in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise until puffy, about 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and the top is slightly crisp.

Let rolls cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle with cream cheese frosting.
