Ingredients

3 tbsp butter melted
½ cups sugar
3 tbsp cinnamon
2 packages crescent rolls 8 count each
1 can apple pie filling

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Place the melted butter in a shallow dish, easy for dipping things into.
3 tbsp butter
In a shallow flat dish, mix cinnamon and sugar.
½ cups sugar, 3 tbsp cinnamon
Open the crescent rolls and separate into individual triangles.
2 packages crescent rolls
Dip one triangle of crescent roll dough into the melted butter and using your finger, evenly spread the butter into a thin layer.
After butter has been evenly spread, dip that triangle into the cinnamon sugar mixture to fully coat both sides.
Lay the coated triangle on a flat surface then place two apples from the canned apple pie filling onto the wide end.
1 can apple pie filling
Gently roll the section into a crescent roll starting with the apple side first.
Place that roll onto the parchment paper and repeat the process with the remaining sections.
Bake for 10-13 minutes or until the bottoms have started to brown.
Allow to cool slightly before eating.

Notes

If you want them to be less messy, you can fold the corners over the apple pie filling before you start to roll the dough. That will ensure they don’t seep.

Make sure to place the crescent rolls seam side down so that when they bake, they turnovers don’t unroll.

Try making them in the air fryer! Heat it to 350 degrees and bake for 6-8 minutes (check them at 5 minutes), then cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Also, air fry in batches if you need to so they have enough space to fully puff up.

Avoid overstuffing the turnovers, even if you have extra apple pie filling! If you add even another tablespoon of filling, the turnovers won’t seal properly and you’ll lose all the filling!

Watch the turnovers while they’re baking and remove when they’re golden brown and feel like they’re cooked if you touch them.

Try other variations! This same recipe would be delicious with the apple pie filling swapped with cherry pie filling, peach pie filling, or even strawberry pie filling. All of those taste great with the cinnamon sugar topping!
