Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 rolls) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 large Apple
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Optional: Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the apple and cut it into 8 thin wedges, removing the core.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon.
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and stir in the vanilla extract.
Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the perforations.
Brush the inside of each dough triangle with the melted butter mixture.
Sprinkle a small amount of the cinnamon-sugar mixture onto each dough triangle, reserving some for later.
Place one apple wedge at the wide end of each triangle, then roll the dough up around the apple, starting from the wide end and sealing it at the tip.
Brush the tops of the rolled crescents with the remaining melted butter mixture and sprinkle with the reserved cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Place the crescents on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Let cool for a few minutes, then dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
