Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper or silpat liner
  • serrated knife
  • cutting board
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • mixing spoons
  • Skillet
  • spatula

Ingredients

  • 2 medium apples I used pink lady, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar packed
  • 12 ounce can Pillsbury Grands Crescent Rolls 8 count
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and large skillet over medium heat. Add butter to skillet to melt. Stir in apples, cinnamon and brown sugar. Let cook for about 3 minutes. Apples should not be too soft. Remove from heat.
  • Unroll crescents onto a large baking sheet lined with a silpat liner. Spread each crescent evenly with a heaping teaspoon or two of peanut butter. Place a spoonful of spiced apples to the wide end of the crescent. Starting at wide end of crescent, start rolling to thin end (see pictures for a visual). Sprinkle tops with sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake for 13-16 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes then serve warm.

Notes

  • Use Silpat or Parchment Paper. To prevent sticking, use a silpat liner or parchment paper over your baking sheet.
  • Use a Tart Apple. Use Granny Smith Apples for a nice tart apple that is perfect with the sweet filling.
  • Try Topping With Ice Cream. Use your favorite vanilla ice cream to scoop on top of the warm baked crescents.
