Equipment

  • 6 quart slow cooker
  • Apple peeler or paring knife
  • Small bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large Granny Smith apples peeled, cored, and sliced into 8 wedges per apple
  • 2 tubes 8oz each refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon optional

Instructions
 

  • Lightly grease the inside of the 6-quart slow cooker with non-stick spray.
  • Remove the crescent dough tubes and unroll, separating the dough into individual triangles.
  • Place one apple wedge on the wider end of each crescent triangle and roll toward the point.
  • Lay the dumplings in a single layer in the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and brown sugar until combined into a paste.
  • Spread the butter and sugar mixture evenly over the dumplings (sprinkle with cinnamon now, if using).
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 hours, or until the pastry is puffy and cooked through and the apples are tender.
  • Serve warm, ensuring to scoop up all of the extra caramel sauce from the bottom of the pot.
