Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough
- 1 large apple
- 0.5 cup walnuts
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel, core, and finely chop the apple into small pieces. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the chopped apple, walnuts, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix well to coat evenly.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the apple walnut mixture onto the wide end of each crescent roll triangle.
Carefully roll up the dough from the wide end to the point, tucking in any filling that may spill out. Place each rolled crescent onto the prepared baking sheet, point side down.
Melt the unsalted butter and lightly brush it over the tops of the crescent rolls.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crescents are golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. If desired, dust with powdered sugar for garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy!
