Making apple dumplings out of crescent rolls is a fantastic way to enjoy a homemade treat without spending hours in the kitchen. In this article, we will guide you through the process of creating these delightful apple dumplings that are perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Before you start, gather the following ingredients:
– 1 package of crescent rolls (8 triangles)
– 2 cups of diced apples (any variety)
– 1/2 cup of brown sugar
– 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg
– 1/4 teaspoon of salt
– 1/2 cup of butter, melted
– 1/4 cup of powdered sugar (for garnish)
– 1 tablespoon of milk (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the diced apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
3. Open the crescent roll package and separate the triangles. Place one triangle on a flat surface with the wide end facing you.
4. Place a generous amount of the apple mixture in the center of the triangle, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Fold the triangle over the apple mixture, creating a half-moon shape. Press the edges together to seal and ensure the filling doesn’t leak out during baking.
6. Repeat the process with the remaining crescent rolls and apple mixture.
7. Place the dumplings on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them for expansion.
8. Brush the top of each dumpling with melted butter.
9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the apples are tender.
10. Remove the dumplings from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
11. In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and milk to create a simple glaze.
12. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled dumplings and serve warm.
