cresent apple pie strudel
I created this recipe tonight - I think its more like a strudel and lighter than pie crust. The butter on the bottom and top is important for that rich butter flavor. It makes for a great dessert or morning sweet and goes well with a cup of pumpkin flavored coffee. I was craving spice, apples and a little something sweet. Apple pie sounded too heavy, so I created this. I'm went straight up and drizzled it with icing. You can enjoy it with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, but maybe next time for me. Enjoy.

How To Make cresent apple pie strudel
-
Step 1Pour half the melted butter in the bottom of a 12⅓ x 9¾ x 2 Inch or 9x13 pan. (I used 12 1/3 x 9 3/4 x 2 inch pan.) Wipe the edges well with melted butter. Place a crescent sheet in the pan. Press it down, pinch together, and press up on edges slightly. Bake in oven 5 minutes at 350 degrees F. -
Step 2Mash the apples in the pie filling into small chunks. (Use 2 cups of apples after mashing them.) Mix in the brown sugar, reserving about 1 tbsp for sprinkling on top. Mix in the cinnamon. Pour over the top of the crescents. Top with remaining crescent rolls. Brush with remaining melted butter. Sprinkle the remaining brown sugar over top and some extra cinnamon. Bake 25-27 minutes.

Step 3Let cool for about 20 minutes. Serve with icing or as is.
