Description

Deliciously flaky apple turnovers made with crescent dough and spiced apple filling, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 1 can crescent rolls (store-bought)
  • 2 medium apples, peeled and diced
  • 23 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 12 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (optional, for glaze)
  • A splash of milk (to thin the glaze)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. In a bowl, mix the diced apples with the granulated sugar and cinnamon until evenly coated. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Unroll the crescent dough and separate the individual triangles, pressing any perforations to seal seams.
  4. Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of the apple mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
  5. Roll each triangle from the wide end toward the point, tucking the point underneath to keep it sealed. Press the edges with a fork if desired.
  6. Place the turnovers on the baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
  8. Optionally, whisk powdered sugar with milk to create a glaze and drizzle over warm turnovers before serving.

Notes

For deeper flavor, swap half the granulated sugar for light brown sugar. Can be frozen for up to 2 months.
