Apple dumplings don't get any easier or any tastier than these. They are lovely to look at and over-the-top delicious to eat!

Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 8
Ingredients
2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored and quartered
1½ cups orange juice
¾ cup brown sugar *white sugar optional
1⁄2 cup butter
1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 (8 count) can refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Wrap each apple piece with a piece of crescent roll.
Place in a greased 8" x 8" baking dish.
Bring orange juice, sugar, butter and cinnamon to a boil and pour over apples dumplings.
Bake until brown, approximately 30 minutes.
Spoon juice over dumplings when you take them from the oven and again individually before serving.
Notes
*Can use brown or white sugar. The brown sugar creates a caramel syrup while the white sugar creates a simple syrup with citrus flavor. Also - this recipe creates slightly more syrup than other recipes I found. I increased the syrup because we love being able to pour over the dumpling just before eating!
