How to Make Baked Apple Dumpling Surprise
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel, core, and halve 6 medium apples (about 3 pounds total).
- Separate 1 can (8 oz) of refrigerated crescent roll dough into 8 triangles.
- Place one apple half on the wide end of each crescent roll triangle.
- Roll the dough tightly around the apple, tucking the point of the triangle under to secure.
- Arrange the apple dumplings in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- Pour the melted butter-sugar mixture evenly over the apple dumplings in the baking dish.
- Bake for 45 minutes, basting with the pan juices every 15 minutes.
- Serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
