Apple Dumpling Ingredients:

  • Apples – any baking apple works great in this recipe. (I used Granny Smith)
  • Crescent rolls
  • Butter
  • Brown sugar
  • Cinnamon
  • Vanilla extract
  • Heavy whipping cream

How to Make Apple Dumplings:

Making this apple dumpling recipe is similar to the process of making cinnamon rolls. You’ll create a butter/sugar/spice mixture and spread it over the crescent roll dough. Then, roll up each piece of prepared apple.

I like to bake these in a pie pan. And in about 30 minutes you’ll have apple dumplings! You can serve these with whipped cream, ice cream, or all on their own.

Tips for Success:

  • Make sure to lightly butter the pie pan before use.
  • Brush any leftover butter/sugar/spice mixture over the tops of the dumplings before baking.
  • The heavy whipping cream keeps the rolls soft and almost chewy, like a Cinnabon cinnamon roll.
  • Place the pie pan on a baking sheet before putting in the oven to catch any juices that may bubble out during baking.

FAQ

What apples are best for apple dumplings?

Any baking apple will work great. My favorite is Granny Smith because I like the sourness balanced with the sugar.

Instructions

  • Peel the apples and cut into six segments. Then, cut out the core areas.
