This semi-homemade version of apple dumplings is made with a delicious surprise ingredient! Apple slices get wrapped in crescent dough, smothered in a caramel sauce, then topped with bubbly canned Sprite. You won’t believe how incredible this concoction is when it bakes up!

I LOVE apple season because of all the different ways to use apples in recipes. Apples are absolutely delicious in recipes like this salad. It adds a sweet crunchy texture. I also look forward to making this Irish apple cake and this breakfast casserole when I have extra apples on hand.

Classic apple dumplings are apples wrapped in a pie crust and then baked in a gooey caramel sauce. The apples get tender and soft, the crust gets golden brown and flakey, and the sauce oozes over the dumplings. But this recipe is getting a refresh because we’re using refrigerated crescent dough and Sprite! And the result is even more amazing! This recipe is the easiest and quickest way to enjoy warm delicious apple dumplings!

It’s fall, and you know what that means! It’s time to make all of your favorite apple desserts, like this easy dump cake. I also love a good pumpkin or zucchini dessert this time of year. Try these pumpkin cookies or these zucchini bars. They are my fave must-have desserts for sure!

Here’s everything you need to make these gooey caramel apple dumplings! Simple ingredients that you most likely already have in your pantry. Just make sure you have a can of refrigerated crescent rolls and you are all set. See the recipe card below for exact measurements.

This is such a fun apple dumpling recipe to make with your kids! They will love to wrap the apples in crescent dough, and you love that you didn’t have to make homemade dough. It’s a win-win situation! They will also get a kick out of using a can of Sprite. And then ask to drink any extra soda that you don’t use!

This delicious dessert will be a go-to for your family during the fall. Actually, it’s so good that you will want to bake it all year long! It only takes a few minutes to put it all together. Here are some tips for making apple dumplings. And the best tip is to top it with some vanilla ice cream. You will love every bite!

These warm apple dumplings are best served warm and right away. I don’t recommend storing leftovers because this recipe does not hold well. The dumplings become soggy and mushy as they sit. This is why it is best eaten right away when it is done baking.
