5-Ingredient Apple Dumplings: Effortlessly Delightful

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 2 8oz cans refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 20oz can apple pie filling
  • 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 can lemon-lime soda

Instructions
 

  • Directions:
  • Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Lightly grease a 13″ x 9″ baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  • Assemble the Dumplings:
  • Open the cans of crescent rolls and separate the dough into pre-cut triangles.
  • Place a spoonful of apple pie filling on the widest part of each triangle, then roll the dough from the bottom end up and away from you to seal the apple inside.
  • Arrange each apple-stuffed roll in the prepared baking dish.
  • Prepare the Sauce:
  • In a separate bowl, use a mixer to cream together the butter and brown sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Place a dollop of the butter mixture on top of each dumpling.
  • Add Soda:
  • Pour the lemon-lime soda into the baking dish around the dumplings, being careful not to pour it directly over the rolls.
  • Bake:
  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and puffy.
  • Serve:
  • Serve the apple dumplings warm, ideally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
