This easy apple dumpling recipe is made with crescent roll dough, fresh apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and 7Up or Sprite. With just 7 ingredients, these warm, golden dumplings bake in a rich, buttery brown sugar-cinnamon sauce with tender apples in every bite.
Ingredients
- 2 (8-ounce) cans crescent rolls
- 2 sticks butter
- 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups 7Up, Sprite, or another lemon-lime soda
- 2 apples (Golden Delicious or Granny Smith)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Butter a 13 x 9 inch baking dish.
- Peel and core the apples, than cut each apple into 8 slices
- Separate the crescent roll dough into triangles. Wrap each apple slice in one triangle of dough and arrange the dumplings in the prepared baking dish.
- Melt the butter, then stir in the brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. Cook just until the mixture is combined and slightly thickened, then remove from the heat and pour it evenly over the dumplings.
- Pour the 7Up or Sprite through the middle and around the edges of the baking dish, not directly over the crescent rolls.
- Bake uncovered for 35–45 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and the sauce is bubbling.
- Serve warm with a scoop of icecream, if desired.
