Ingredients
- 3-4 Granny Smith apples
- 2 cans, 8 oz each refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 3/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2/3 cup Sprite lemon lime soda
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Peel and core apples. Cut each apple into 8-10 slices.
- Unroll crescent dough. Cut each triangle into two smaller triangles. You will end up with 32 dough triangles from the two packages.
- Place an apple slice on the short side of each triangle and roll up to the point, wrapping dough around each apple slice.
- Arrange crescent-wrapped apples in greased pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pour the mixture over apple dumplings.
- Pour the Sprite in the center and along the edges of the pan. (Do not pour directly on the dumplings.)
- Bake uncovered 33-36 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
- In place of Sprite, you can use 7-Up, Mountain Dew, or similar lemon-lime sodas. I do not recommend using diet soda in this recipe.
- Crescent dough sheets can be used in place of crescent roll dough. Cut each sheet of dough into 16 squares and then roll up as directed.
- Peeling the apples is optional. You can leave the skin on if you would prefer.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.
