Here’s a recap of the recipe with a few serving suggestions!

Apple Dumplings Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Dumplings:

  • 4 medium-sized apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best)
  • 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

For the Syrup:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.
  1. Prepare Apples:
  • Peel, core, and slice the apples in half for larger dumplings or into smaller slices for individual portions.
  1. Wrap the Apples:
  • Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into triangles. Place one apple slice in the center of each triangle.
  • In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Drizzle this over each apple slice.
  • Fold the dough around the apple slice and seal the edges to create a dumpling. Place the dumplings sealed-side down in the baking dish.
  1. Make the Syrup:
  • In a saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, water, butter, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium until the butter melts and sugar dissolves, creating a syrup.
  1. Bake:
  • Pour the syrup over the dumplings. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the dumplings are golden brown and the apples are tender.
  1. Serve:
  • Remove the dumplings from the oven, allow them to cool slightly, and drizzle the syrup from the baking dish over the top.
  • Serve warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat!
