Ingredients

  • 1 can crescent rolls
  • 1 large apple I use Honeycrisp
  • 1/4 Cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 pecan pieces
  • 1/4 raisins
  • 1/2 stick unsalted butter softened
  • Cinnamon Sugar

Instructions

  • Peel and cut the apple into small bits
  • Melt 3 Tbsp. butter in an iron skillet
  • Add the brown sugar and apples to the melted butter and stir
  • Add the pecans and raisins to the apple mixture and stir
  • Continue stirring on med. heat until the apples are tender (about 15 minutes)
  • While the apple mixture is cooking prepare the crescent rolls
  • Roll out each crescent roll and spread with the remaining softened butter
  • Sprinkle the buttered crescent roll with cinnamon sugar
  • Place a dollop of the apple mixture onto each prepared crescent roll
  • Gently roll up and bake at 325° until golden brown, about 12-15 min. Oven temps vary, be sure to check yours often!
