Ingredients:
- 2 Granny Smith apples (peeled, cored, and cut into 8 slices each)
- 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 (12-ounce) can lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7Up)
- nonstick spray for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat the oven and prepare the baking dish: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Wrap apples in dough: Wrap each apple slice in a crescent roll triangle and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Prepare the butter sauce: Melt butter in a saucepan, add sugar and vanilla, stir until dissolved, then pour over the dumplings.
- Add soda and bake: Pour the lemon-lime soda around the dumplings, sprinkle with cinnamon, and bake until golden brown and bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Let the dumplings cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- For a crispier top, bake uncovered the entire time; for softer dumplings, tent with foil halfway through.
