Ingredients :
1 (8 oz.) tube of refrigerated crescent rolls or crescent dough sheet
1 medium apple, small diced
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted (divided)
⅓ cup sugar (you can use half light brown sugar and half white granulated sugar)
Cinnamon, to taste (I added about 3/4 teaspoon)
For the Glaze:
½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1 Tbsp. milk, or more to reach desired consistency
Directions:
Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cupcake pan with paper liners and set aside. You’ll have 8 rolls.
Prepare the Dough:
On a sheet of parchment paper, unroll the crescent dough sheet. If using crescent rolls, seal the perforation to make a large rectangle. Brush the dough with about 2 Tbsp. melted butter (reserve remaining butter for later use).
Stir together cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over the melted butter. Scatter diced apples on top.
Roll and Slice:
Beginning on the long side of the rectangle, roll the dough into a log.
Slice the log into 8 (1 ½ inch) pieces. Arrange pieces in paper liners.
Bake:
Brush the top with melted butter and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. If it starts browning too quickly, tent the top with aluminum foil.
Prepare the Glaze:
Stir together glaze ingredients and spoon over slightly cooled cupcakes.
