Ingredients for Apple Dumpling Cobbler

  • Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
  • Granny Smith Apples
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar + 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Ground Cinnamon

How to Make Apple Dumpling Cobbler

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Unroll 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate into 8 triangles.
  3. Peel, core, and cut 4 medium apples (about 2 lbs) into quarters.
  4. Wrap each apple quarter with a crescent roll triangle, pinching the edges to seal.
  5. Place the wrapped apple dumplings in a lightly greased 13x9 inch baking dish.
  6. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
  7. Pour the orange juice mixture evenly over the apple dumplings in the baking dish.
  8. In a small bowl, stir together 2 teaspoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  9. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dumplings.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and the apples are tender.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
