Yield: 8 Apple Pie Bites

Ingredients

¼ cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon apple pie spice, plus an additional ¼ teaspoon for sprinkling
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
⅓ cup chopped pecans
1 small Granny Smith apple, cored and sliced into 8 (½-inch) slices
1 (8-ounce) tube Pillsbury Original crescent rolls

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of apple pie spice. This will be the filling mixture. Set aside.
In another bowl, melt the butter. Toss the apple slices in the melted butter until they are well coated. Reserve the remaining butter for later use.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the brown sugar and spice mixture evenly over each crescent triangle.
Divide the chopped pecans equally among the triangles, sprinkling them over the sugar mixture.
Place an apple slice at the wide end of each triangle. Starting from the wide end, roll up each crescent roll, wrapping the dough around the apple slice.
Brush the tops of the wrapped crescent rolls with the remaining melted butter. Lightly sprinkle the additional ¼ teaspoon of apple pie spice over the tops.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and allow the apple pie bites to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
