I made a brown butter raspberry tart and took half of it to my mom's house. (so I wouldn't eat the whole thing) Dang it was yummy. Made banana bread too.

I finally tried the recipe for apple dumplings that uses Mountain Dew & refrigerated crescent roll dough.
Not sure you really need the soda - it doesn't seem to add anything to the recipe.
Maybe sub orange juice instead?

Anyhow, they came out good and were not soggy on Day #2.
I used a small can of rolls - makes 4 - as I wasn't sure I'd like the result.

For a full recipe:
1 can of crescent rolls - 8 rolls to the package

2 large apples, peeled ,cored & cut into quarters

Open the rolls and separate into 8 wedges

Starting at the wide end, roll up one apple quarter in each wedge of dough, stretching the dough to cover the apple, pinch seams shut.

Place in an ungeased pan

Melt 6 Tablespoons of butter & stir in 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 3/4 cup Mountain Dew.

Pour over the dumplings.

Bake covered at 350 for 15 minutes, uncover & bake 15 minutes more.

Well, I just picked a bunch of apples off my tree, so it looks like it's time for apple crisp!

Sounds like a Cee Dub camp fire cast iron cooking type of dump cake, great fun.

You are right! That is something a group of boys could manage!
We are always looking for good and easy dutch oven food. -low management and still palatable. that's the ticket!
