Recipe for 5-Ingredient Apple Dumplings:

Indulge in the simplicity and richness of these apple dumplings, a dessert sure to please any palate.

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

Directions:

1. 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.

1. 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.

1. 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.

1. Add Soda:

• Pour the lemon-lime soda into the baking dish around the dumplings, being careful not to pour it directly over the rolls.

1. Bake:

• Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and puffy.

1. Serve:

• Serve the apple dumplings warm, ideally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
