Holiday food is what we all dream of right? But, Holiday food makes us all crazy with the constant in the kitchen for days. You guys – holiday food doesn’t have to be hard! You don’t have to spend years in the kitchen, you can make a tasty treat like an Apple Crescent Ring in minutes – I have the recipe below but first, let’s talk about our Holiday Traditions!
One of my first stops for holiday baking/cooking is my Betty Crocker Cookbook! And guess what? I just got a new one (some updates – you guys go get it I LOVE IT!). There are some awesome homemade ideas in there and you know it has the recipes your mom and grandmom made you. Family Baking/Cooking at it’s best! YUM!
My next stop when planning my attack on food? General Mills. You guys we don’t have to do everything from scratch. Let the professionals at General Mills help you out! I LOVE the products that General Mills gives me to keep the holiday traditions SIMPLE, DELISH, and FUN! If the baking becomes no fun? My kids won’t want to do it with me anymore!
^The Great COOKIE Tradition!
I hear you saying Heather…come on really? Well you guys – I use General Mills and I make “Semi-Homemade” and no one knows. It’s our secret! Apple Crescent Ring could take FOREVER or it could take minutes. Crescent Rolls are so incredibly awesome that everyone LOVES this breakfast. I trust General Mills (I mean they’ve been doing this for 150 years). I trust Pillsbury to always be awesome. My Holiday Traditions are NOT complete without Pillsbury, Betty Crocker and Chex (um hello we have to have Chex Mix!!). YUM.
OOOHH We’re going to get baking here – but you guys make sure to go to General Mills on Twitter and Instagram, use the hashtag #HolidayTraditions with a picture of YOUR holiday tradition! I can’t wait to see them all! Tag Who Needs a Cape? too! Need some inspiration for Holiday Traditions? Follow this link!
To make Apple Crescent Ring you’re going to need:
2 Packages of Crescent Rolls
1 Can of Apple Pie Filling
1/2 C Powdered Sugar
1 – 2 Tbsp Milk
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees
Using crescents, make a ring on a circle cooking plate (pizza plate worked great)
Press ends together to ensure a full ring (unbroken in the middle) leaving the ends of the crescent rolls alone
Along the center ring, place apple pie filling. Careful not too much or it will leak out.
Fold ends of rolls up and press together
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the crescent ring is lightly brown
While the ring is cooling mix together sugar and milk to make a simple frosting
Drizzle frosting over the crescent ring and serve
