Ingredients

Servings

Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese softened
  • 1/3 /3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 /2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages crescent rolls refrigerated
  • 1 (21 ounce) can apple filling

Crumble:

  • 1/2 /2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 /3 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 /2 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 /4 cup butter softened
  • caramel optional, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 15" pizza pan or stone with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, egg yolk, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Unroll the crescent dough into triangles. Reserve 4 triangles for later. Arrange the triangles on the pizza pan or stone with the points pointing towards the center. Press seams together to form a circle. Using the bottom of the glass, cut a circle in the center and remove circle of dough.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture on top of the crescent dough leaving a margin on the edges. 
  5. Spoon the apple filling evenly on top of the cream cheese filling. 
  6. Take reserved 4 triangles of crescent dough and cut each into 3 strips lengthwise. Take each strip of dough and twist it and drape it over the the filling connecting it on the center of the ring to the outside of the ring. Please note that this does not have to be exact. I had to use an extra triangle for my crescent circle so I only had 3 triangles to split up. Have fun and use your creativity.
  7. For the crumble: Combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, and butter in a bowl. Mix well. I like to use my clean hands to get in there and mush it together until it's the texture of wet sand. Sprinkle topping evenly over the apples.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until crescent dough is nice and golden.
  9. Cut into slices and serve warm. Place a ramekin of caramel in the center for drizzling on top if desired.
