Ingredients

  1. 1 can crescent roll dough
  2. 2 medium apples, peeled and sliced
  3. 1/2 cup caramel sauce
  4. 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  5. 1 tablespoon sugar
  6. 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash, peel, and thinly slice the apples into approximately 1/4-inch thick pieces. Ensure slices are uniform for even cooking.

  8. Brush the top of each rolled crescent with beaten egg to create a golden, shiny finish.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and puffy.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet.
  11. Drizzle warm caramel sauce generously over the baked crescent rolls before serving.
  12. Serve warm and enjoy the delicious caramel apple pie crescent rolls.

Tips

  1. Choose the Right Apples: For the best flavor and texture, use a mix of sweet and tart apples, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp. This combination will give your rolls a delicious balance.
  2. Uniform Slices: Ensure that your apple slices are about 1/4-inch thick for even cooking. This will help them soften perfectly without becoming mushy.
  3. Don’t Skimp on the Caramel: Generously drizzle the caramel sauce over the baked rolls while they’re still warm for a gooey, decadent finish.
  4. Experiment with Spices: Feel free to add a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the cinnamon-sugar mixture for an extra layer of flavor that complements the apples beautifully.
  5. Serve with Ice Cream: For a truly indulgent treat, serve your caramel apple pie crescent rolls with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side—it's a match made in dessert heaven!
