OMG, this is one of the best dessert recipes I have ever tried! Thankfully, I read each and every review before trying them. Please, people, do make the recommended adjustments and I promise you will not be disappointed! I diced the apples and coated them with cinnamon/sugar. I baked the dumplings on one side for 20 minutes. Then I turned them and baked for another 10 minutes before adding the sauce. I made up the sauce minus the water and had to add just a tablespoon or so to get it the right consistency. I also used 1/2 white sugar and 1/2 brown sugar and ended up with this beautiful caramel sauce. I added the sauce the last 10 minutes of cooking and served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I had people begging me for the recipe and I have made it twice this week. My husband has requested that this be THE dessert for Thanksgiving dinner and I will be only to happy to oblige. Folks, it really is awesome!

DELICIOUS! I followed all of the suggestions...diced apples and sprinkled w/cinnamon and sugar, reduce the water in the sauce (I mixed everything else together and then added water gradually until I had the consistance I wanted), cooked for 10 minutes before adding the sauce. I made two dumplings (used 1 diced apple) with the "grand" crescent rolls. I only baked for 27 minutes and it was perfect.

This is just too good to be true. It was easy to prepare. I did follow the advice of the others by using only a little water and by cutting my apples into quarters. I used gala apples. I also sprinkled the apples with a little cinnamon and sugar before wrapping them with the croissant dough. And I baked for about 5 minutes before adding the liquid mixture and I used half brown sugar half white sugar. These were sooooooooooooooooooooooo good. You must eat it with vanilla ice cream. I am going to make another batch today.
