Ingredients
2medium-large apples, cored and sliced
⅓cupbrown sugar
4tablespoonsbutter
2teaspoonscinnamon, divided
1packagerefrigerated crescent dough, (8-pack of crescents)
1 ½cupssugar
½cupsoda, I use 7UP or Sprite
1teaspoonvanilla extrarct
vanilla ice cream, for serving
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease a medium size baking dish. (A round pie pan/dish or 9x9 inch square pan work well)
Combine apple slices, butter, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and brown sugar in a large pan or skillet. Saute over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until sauce is bubbly and apples are fork-tender.
Arrange crescents on a clean flat surface. Spoon about 2 slices of apples and sauce onto the wide end of the crescent triangle. Tightly roll up crescent starting with the wide end and finishing at the opposite, pointed end. Place in prepared baking dish.
In a medium bowl stir together sugar, vanilla, remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 7UP soda. Pour mixture over the apple bundles.
Bake, uncovered for 15-20 minutes until browned and sauce is bubbly and dark. Spoon some of the sauce from the bottom of the dish over the top of the crescents. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream and enjoy!
Notes
Apples: I prefer fuji or other apples with a light red color. Double the recipe: use a 9x13 inch pan to double this recipe. Baking time should be about the same or only a bit longer than the original recipe if your apple bundles are arranged in a single layer.
