How to Make Apple Braid
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Unroll crescent roll dough and place it in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Gently press to flatten and seal perforations.
- Lightly sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of flour.
- Peel, core, and thinly slice 4 medium apples.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg.
- Add the sliced apples to the bowl and toss gently to coat.
- Place the apple mixture down the center of the dough, forming a 2-inch wide strip.
- Cut 10 slits, about 3/4 inch wide, on each side of the dough surrounding the apple mixture. Alternate cutting the dough strips from one side to the other.
- Fold alternating dough strips over the apple filling, braiding the dough.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the microwave until liquefied (do not boil).
- Brush the melted butter over the top of the braid.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the braid is baking, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup powdered sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of milk until smooth.
- Remove the braid from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Pour glaze over the warm braid.
- Cut into slices and serve warm.
