Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 small Apple, peeled and finely diced
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Unroll the crescent rolls and separate the dough into 8 triangles.
In a small bowl, mix diced apple, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
Spoon a small amount of the apple mixture onto the center of each crescent triangle.
Fold the dough carefully over the apple mixture, pinching the edges to seal and rolling slightly to form a twist shape.
Place the twists on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each twist lightly with melted butter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
While the twists are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Remove the twists from the oven and let them cool slightly before drizzling the glaze on top.
Serve warm and enjoy!
