- 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough - 2 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled and diced - 1/4 cup brown sugar - 1 teaspoon cinnamon - 1/4 cup caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling) - 1 tablespoon butter, melted - 1 egg (for egg wash) - Powdered sugar for dusting (optional) To make caramel apple stuffed crescent rolls, gather these ingredients. Start with crescent roll dough. I like to use fresh, flaky dough for the best texture. Choose apples with a good balance of sweet and tart. Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well. Next, the brown sugar and cinnamon add sweetness and warmth. The caramel sauce gives a rich touch that melts into the apple filling. You can drizzle extra caramel on top for a fun finish. Melted butter gives the rolls a nice shine and flavor. Finally, an egg wash helps the rolls turn golden brown in the oven. You can dust with powdered sugar for a sweet touch. This adds a lovely look to your treats. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This helps prevent sticking and makes clean-up easy. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Toss until all the apples are coated well. This mixture gives the rolls a sweet and spicy flavor. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Place about a tablespoon of caramel sauce in the center of each triangle. Add a spoonful of the apple mixture on top of the caramel. Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling. Roll it up from the wide end to the point. Pinch the edges to seal them tightly. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter. Beat an egg and brush it over the top for a nice golden finish. Place the stuffed crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. The smell will fill your kitchen, and the rolls will look amazing! To make the best caramel apple stuffed crescent rolls, pick the right apples. I recommend using Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples. These apples are tart yet sweet. They hold their shape well when baked. This gives you a nice bite in each roll. You want apples that balance flavor and texture. Sealing the crescent rolls well is key. After adding the filling, fold the edges carefully. Roll from the wide end to the tip. Pinch the edges to make sure the filling stays inside. You can also use a fork to press down the edges. This adds a nice design and keeps the filling secure. Want to make it your own? You can add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans. They add crunch and flavor. You can also try mixing in different spices. Add nutmeg or ginger for a unique twist.
