Ingredients

Fruit

  • 2 fresh peaches

Dumplings

  • 8 ounce tube crescent rolls

Spices

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (divided use)

Sauce

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons flour
  • 3/4 cup lemon lime soda (such as Sprite or Mountain Dew)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Slice Peaches: Cut each peach into quarters, resulting in 8 peach slices total. You may choose to peel the peaches or leave the skin on, as they soften during baking.
  3. Prepare Crescent Rolls: Unroll the 8-ounce tube of crescent rolls and separate into 8 individual triangles.
  4. Season Rolls: Sprinkle each crescent roll piece with a pinch of ground cinnamon for added flavor.
  5. Add Peach Slices: Place one peach slice at the larger end of each crescent roll triangle.
  6. Roll Dumplings: Roll up each crescent roll around the peach slice, tucking in the ends to create a neat bundle. Repeat with all pieces.
  7. Arrange Dumplings: Place all 8 peach dumplings seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  8. Mix Butter Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and flour until smooth.
  9. Add Sauce to Dumplings: Pour the butter mixture evenly over the crescent roll bundles in the baking dish.
  10. Add Lemon-Lime Soda: Pour the lemon-lime soda around the edges and between the dumplings to create a light, bubbly sauce.
  11. Sprinkle Cinnamon: Lightly sprinkle a bit more ground cinnamon over the tops of the dumplings for extra spice and color.
  12. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until the dumplings are golden brown and bubbly.
  13. Serve: Optionally serve warm, topped with whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for a delicious finish.

Notes

  • Peeling peaches is optional; baking softens the skin for a tender bite.
  • Using lemon-lime soda adds a subtle citrusy sweetness and helps create a light sauce.
  • For extra indulgence, serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Ensure dumplings are placed seam-side down to prevent unrolling during baking.
