Apple pie rolls

Here’s a fun and easy recipe for Apple Pie Rolls  — all the flavors of apple pie in a handheld, flaky roll.

 Apple Pie Rolls Recipe

Ingredients (makes ~8–10 rolls)

• 1 package (8 oz / 225 g) crescent roll dough or puff pastry

• 2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced

• 2 tablespoons butter

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar

• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

• ½ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

• Powdered sugar for optional glaze

Instructions

1. Prepare the Apple Filling

   • In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

   • Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.

   • Cook for 5–7 minutes until apples are slightly softened.

   • Let cool slightly.

2. Assemble Rolls

   • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

   • Roll out crescent dough or puff pastry.

   • Place a spoonful of apple mixture on each section.

   • Roll or fold dough to encase filling. Seal edges with a fork.

3. Bake

   • Brush rolls with beaten egg.

   • Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown.

4. Optional Glaze

   • Mix powdered sugar with a splash of milk or lemon juice.

   • Drizzle over cooled rolls.

 Tips

• For extra flavor, add raisins or chopped pecans to the filling.

• Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a mini apple pie dessert!

• You can also air fry these at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes for a quicker version.

If you want, I can give a shortcut version using store-bought cinnamon sugar apple filling that takes under 20 minutes to bake. Do you want me to do that?
