HOT APPLE DUMPLINGS

These are the true old-fashioned apple dumplings! The sauce is awesome. They aren’t difficult, and were kind of fun to make. I think you could even use store-bought pie dough if you aren’t good at making your own. I think these are a true comfort food. Try them! Danny R.

First, I scaled this recipe down to 4 servings. I really wanted to take this one step further and make as close to my Nanny’s recipe as possible. She always used canned biscuits. So I substituted Pillsbury Buttermilk Golden Layer biscuits for the pie crust. I used 2 1/2 rolled biscuits for each apple. Wrapping each apple and gently closing the tops.

Then I cooked in a 350 degree oven for approximately 50 minutes. The real secret is to keep basting the apples with your sauce about every 10 minutes to keep the crust nicely glazed, which will bake to a beautiful golden crust. I served this with homemade vanilla ice cream. My husband says it is the best ever! This is definitely a “MUST HAVE” recipe. Thanks!

You’ll Need:

1 apple, cored, peeled and sliced into 8 slices.
1 (8 ounce) tube of crescent rolls.
1 melted stick of butter.
¾ cups of sugar.
½ tsp of cinnamon.
1 ½ tbsps of flour.
6 oz of Sprite.

How to:

Preheat the oven to 350° and grease an 8×8 or 9×9 pan.

Unroll the crescent rolls and place one slice of apple on the large end of each crescent and roll it up.

Arrange the rolls in the pan.

Mix together the melted butter, sugar, cinnamon and flour in a small bowl until well combined. Spoon the mixture over each crescent generously.

In the middle of the pan, pour Sprite, make sure you don’t pour it over the crescents.

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes and serve warm with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
