Apple Crescent Rolls
Description
This recipe combines thin slices of a crisp apple baked briefly to soften, then individually wrapped in crescent roll dough that has been brushed with melted vegan butter and dusted with a cinnamon-sugar blend. The rolls are finished by brushing the tops with more vegan butter and sugar before baking the whole assembly according to the crescent roll package instructions.
The apple slices become tender yet retain some texture, complementing the soft, flaky crescent dough. The cinnamon and sugar bring warmth and sweetness, while vegan butter adds a rich flavor. Baking at 375°F ensures an evenly cooked treat with nicely browned crusts.
These rolls are best enjoyed warm when the flavors and texture are at their peak. Thin, even apple slices help achieve consistent baking and filling softness.
Ingredients
- 1 apple sliced, crisp
- 2 Tablespoons sugar I used 1 tablespoon brown sugar and 1 tablespoon coconut sugar and Stevia
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tube crescent rolls
- 2 Tablespoons vegan butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- Place apples on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
- While apples are baking, mix together sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- Roll out crescent rolls and lightly brush with vegan butter and sprinkle each with a little of the sugar mixture.
- Roll an apple into each crescent roll and brush the tops with vegan butter and sprinkle more sugar on top. Bake according to package.
Notes
- Use a crisp, flavorful apple variety for the best taste and texture.
- Bake the apples on a lined sheet to soften before wrapping in dough.
- Cut apple slices thin and evenly to ensure they cook uniformly inside the rolls.
- Bake rolls in the middle of the oven to maintain an even temperature and prevent burning.
- Serve the cinnamon apple crescent rolls warm to enjoy the full flavor and soft texture.
