Apple Pie Crescent Rolls

     While this is not the first recipe from Pinterest I have tried, it will be the first one that gets reviewed on my blog. Rest assured, I will share my review of those the next time I make them. At least you know they are good enough to eat again :)

    This morning, I made my family Apple Pie Crescent Rolls ( click here to view the pin on my board) for brunch. Three out of four loved them, however my picky eater (Autumn, 13) took a bite and gave me the look of disapproval, because she does not like apples...but loves applesauce (don't ask...). This was a fairly simple recipe to follow and requires few ingredients. Since my family likes to eat a lot, I doubled the recipes to make 16 crescent rolls.

 Here's what you will need (single recipe):

• 1 red tart apple-washed and sliced in 8 sections, skin left on
• 1 can crescent rolls
• 3 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 4 Tbsp. brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp. butter, melted

    I did use two different kinds of crescent rolls, original and butter flaky. Both came out fine, so use whatever (garlic not recommended). While preheating your over to 350 degrees, lightly grease your baking sheet (if doubling the recipe like I did, you will need two baking sheets). The recipe doesn't tell you to, but I combined my brown sugar and cinnamon and mixed it well so I could sprinkle them on at the same time.

1. Roll out the crescent roll dough. Take a butter knife and separate the triangles. 
2. Brush the triangles with the melted butter. 
3. Sprinkle the triangles with cinnamon and brown sugar.
4. Put apple slice on the wide part of triangle and roll into crescent shape. *Tip- to make it easier to roll, put the inside part of the apple along the edge. If you have a little bit of dough on the corners, wrap them around the apple before rolling up in crescent. See picture below.

        5.  Place on baking sheet and put in the oven. 

        6.  Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

       7.  The recipe says to serve with blueberry yogurt, which sounds yummy but I did not have any on hand.  

    You see the finished product. I baked mine for the 15 minutes and my crescent rolls were baked to golden perfection, however a couple of the apples could've used an extra minute in the oven. I would rather have apples that are slightly crunchy still over having doughy crescent rolls. I think the next time I make these I am also going to serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Mmmmm...

   And yes, I still eat off of my McDonald's Hercules plates.You may as well get used to them if you are going to be subscribing to this blog.
