Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings

Oh  my stars.  This apple dumpling recipe made with Mountain Dew is amazing!  I first tasted the goodness at a neighborhood party.  I could seriously not get enough.  My neighbor was kind enough to pass along the recipe, and not only is this delicious it is SO easy to make.  That is a big winner in my book.

We may have made this three times last week.  Yes.  We made it for a neighbor to enjoy with a homemade dinner after surgery.  After smelling the awesome sauce we then made it for ourselves.  The following night we had a birthday party to attend and made it again to bring to the party.  Again, it was a hit.

Trust me.  It can’t get more delicious with this amount of easiness.

Crescent Roll Apple Dumplings Ingredients

Here’s what you need to make this goodness.

  • 2 Granny Smith Apples
  • 2 Cans Crescent Rolls (8 oz each)
  • 2 Sticks Butter
  • 1 ½ Cup Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • Cinnamon
  • 1 Can of Mountain Dew Soda (12 oz)

The crescent rolls make this a seriously easy recipe. Pop the can, man.  (Anyone else feel a bit of anxiety before the can opens?  Asking for a friend.) And then wrap each individual sliced granny smith apple within the crescent roll.  I like to slice my apples into eight pieces which means you’ll have 16 little dumplings.

After placing the dumplings into a pan, melt the butter and add the sugar and stir.  Once well mixed add the vanilla.  Pour over the dumplings.  Then, pour the mountain dew around the edges of the mt. dew apple dumplings.

Sprinkle with cinnamon and enjoy!  They are best served warm right away with a topping of vanilla ice cream.

    I made this and it was wonderful!
    I used diet ginger ale instead .
    I added a tsp of cream cheese to the apple slice before wrapping in dough.

    A great recipe I can’t wait to try out. I love apples and cinnamon, and especially dumplings!

    I came up with a related recipe for Apple Dumplings in a cinnamon sauce. While different from your own, I think mine is a unique take on the dish. I’m new to the Food Blog scene and would love some feedback from a pro like you. Check out my recipe if have time.
