Or, couldn't you sprinkle the cinnamon or caramel sprinkles instead of just cinnamon?

I would mix the sprinkles with the cinnamon. I do that for cinnamon rolls.
 
My SIL makes these all of the time, but I haven't tried making them yet in stoneware. They are delicious!!


Apple Dumplings

2 cans crescent rolls
4 granny smith apples
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 sticks butter
12 oz Mt Dew

Peel & quarter apples. Place a quarter apple on each crescent roll and roll up. Place in a greased 9 X 13 pan. Melt butter, sugar & cinnamon together & pour over top. Then pour 12 oz Mt Dew over that. Bake 350 degrees for 40-45 min or until brown.

That is the same recipe I use! They are sooooo good! I use the rectangle baker. I also use the APCS for the apples. They are not so thick.

My hubby would love this recipe simply because it's another way for him to consume The Dew... LOL
 
apple bundles are great. I think they are in the all the best or the desserts cookbook.

I have only tried them with the Mt Dew, not sure how it would be with Sprite or 7-up. Sorry.
