KT's Apple Dumplings

[redsquirrel]

This recipe was passed on to me by our own ktspirit.

My changes:
Sprite instead of Mountain Dew.
3/4 cup brown sugar with 3/4 cup white granulated sugar.

Ingredients

​

2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored​

​

2 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough​

​

1 cup butter​

​

1 1/2 cups white sugar​

​

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon​

​

1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle Mountain Dew ™​

Directionstep-By-Step

1​

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

2​

Cut each apple into 8 wedges and set aside. Separate the crescent roll dough into triangles. Roll each apple wedge in crescent roll dough starting at the smallest end. Pinch to seal and place in the baking dish.

3​

Melt butter in a small saucepan and stir in the sugar and cinnamon. Pour over the apple dumplings. Pour Mountain Dew™ over the dumplings.

4​

Bake for 35 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.

Hmm... I wonder how this would work with Stevia or Splenda. And diet sprite. I can't have sugar but I've had a craving for apple pie lately that this would satisfy.

Here is someone's review of the recipe at http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Country-Apple-Dumplings/

"My son-in-law is diabetic, so I reduced the butter to 3/4 stick of butter melted with 1/2 cup of Splenda sugar blend, and used Diet Mountain Dew. Wonderful!"
