Ingredients
- 1 large green apple, cut into 8 slices ($0.88)
- 1 can crescent rolls ($1.98)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted ($0.25)
- ½ cup brown sugar ($0.22)
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon ($0.16)
- ¼ teaspoons ground nutmeg ($0.02)
- 1 pinch ground cloves ($0.01)
Instructions
- Prep the apple. Cut the apple in half, then into quarters. Remove the core and cut each quarter in half to make 8 slices.
- Soften the apple. Place apple slices on a plate and microwave for 1 minute to soften slightly.
- Prepare the filling. Melt the butter in the microwave. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Prep the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Assemble. Unroll crescent dough and brush lightly with melted butter. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture over each crescent. Place one apple slice on the wide end and roll toward the point.
- Finish and bake. Brush tops with remaining butter and sprinkle with more cinnamon sugar. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Cool and serve. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Sweet finish: Add a powdered sugar drizzle after baking for extra sweetness.
- Easy cleanup: Always line the pan to prevent sugar from sticking.
- Variations: Add chopped pecans or caramel chips before rolling.
- Serving: Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or caramel sauce.
- Dough options: Any crescent rolls work, including plain or honey flavored.
