Main Ingredients
- 1 crisp apple sliced
- 2 tablespoons sugar (1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 tablespoon coconut sugar, and Stevia)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tube crescent rolls
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- Bake Apples: Arrange the sliced apples on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes to soften them slightly and enhance their natural sweetness.
- Mix Sugar and Spices: While the apples bake, combine the brown sugar, coconut sugar, Stevia, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl to create a flavorful spice mixture.
- Prepare Crescent Rolls: Roll out the crescent dough and lightly brush each piece with melted vegan butter, then sprinkle evenly with the sugar and cinnamon mixture.
- Assemble Rolls: Place a baked apple slice onto each crescent dough piece, then roll them up, brush the tops with more vegan butter, and sprinkle additional sugar mixture on top for a sweet finish.
- Bake Crescent Rolls: Bake the rolls according to the crescent roll package instructions, usually about 9 minutes, until golden brown and flaky.
Notes
- Use a crisp and flavorful apple like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best taste and texture.
- Bake the apples in the middle of the oven to ensure even heat distribution.
- Slice apples thinly and uniformly to ensure they bake evenly within the rolls.
- Serve the crescent rolls warm to enjoy their full cinnamon apple flavor and flaky texture.
