The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

I am totally going to try this. We have a church potluck coming up next Sunday, and it’s a breakfast potluck, I’m declaring this to be also ok for a morning treat.

I was going to put in the Pumpkin Yeast Bread that I made, but I wasn’t overly impressed with it. The recipe calls for a cup and half of pumpkin but the pumpkin taste doesn’t really come throughw. The bread was a bit heavy, maybe because I used bread flour and wasn’t able to get in the required six and half cups of flour. Anyway, all that to say, I won’t make it again.

This recipe comes from All Recipes. Almost all recipes have a 4 star. This one had a five star and many reviews. I encourage you to check them out. There were many that changed it a bit, for instance, using brown sugar for half of the sugar or using the refrigerated biscuit dough instead of the crescent dough.

INGREDIENTS:

2 (8oz) cans refrigerated crescent rolls

2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 8 wedges each

1 cup butter, melted

1 ½ cups white sugar

1 Tbsp ground cinnamon

1 (12 oz) can or bottle caffeinated citrus-flavored soda (such as Mountain Dew)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking pan

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate the sheets into individual triangles. Roll each apple wedge into a triangle of dough, and place them into the baking dish, seam side down.

Mix the melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl, and spoon evenly over the dough-wrapped slices. Pour soda over the rolls.

Bake in the preheated oven until the top is browned, the apples are cooked through, and the cobbler is bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes.

MY NOTES:

One of the reviews said to make the slices smaller and another said she coated the apples slices with a brown sugar mixture. I would think if it is supposed to bake for 45 minutes the apples should be soft by then.

I am going to use about a half cup of brown sugar and maybe not quite a full cup of white sugar.

I will let you know next week how it comes out.

ENJOY!!
