Roll up some apples in crescent rolls, pour a delicious sugar mixture over them, and top with the secret ingredient (Mountain Dew) and Presto! You have yummy Apple Dumplings!
Melt butter over low heat, in a saucepan on the stove. Add sugar, vanilla and cinnamon, and cook until combined into a thick sauce over low-med heat.
Peel and core the apples and cut each apple into 8 slices. Put apples and a little bit of water (about a tablespoon, not much) into a bowl and microwave for 2 minutes.
Roll one apple slice in each of the crescent rolls.
Place apple filled crescent rolls in a 13″ by 9″ pan that has been sprayed with Pam.
Cover crescent rolls with sugar and butter mixture.
After covering with butter mixture, cover crescent rolls with 12 oz. of Mountain Dew. Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.
Recipe Notes
These are so good! Serve at a brunch or party, as an appetizer or dessert, you absolutely cannot go wrong with these dumplings! I’ve had them done with peaches, which is good, but apple is still my favorite variety 🙂
