What is a Turnover?
A turnover is basically an individual pie. Like mini apple pies similar to a hand pie. Turnovers are traditionally puff pastry with a sweet or savory filling.
Instead of using a sheet of puff pastry, I made this apple turnover recipe even
easier and fail proof by using a can of crescent rolls. This is a great shortcut!
There is barely any prep work for this recipe other than slicing the
apples. You just assemble and bake! It truly is an
easy apple dessert recipe everyone will love!

Crescent Roll Apple Turnover Ingredient List
- Apple - I prefer to use a sweet apple variety such as Honey Crisp, Sweet Tango or Pink Lady apples. If you prefer a tangier apple you might want to try Granny Smith apples
- Light brown sugar
- Unsalted butter
- Ground cinnamon
- Tube of crescent rolls (my secret ingredient that makes this an easy recipe!)
- Caramel Sauce
How to Make Crescent Roll Apple Turnovers
- Preheat oven: 350 degrees F
- Prepare baking sheet: Line an ungreased baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Turnover filling: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon. Mix well.
- Prepare crescent rolls: Unroll crescent roll dough
- Assemble: Top each crescent roll with filling mixture and 1 apple slice. Starting at the wide end, carefully roll each crescent around the apple, keeping the apple filling inside. Place each on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Brush crescent dough with melted butter and place baking sheet in preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack
Serving Suggestions
- Crescent Roll Apple Turnovers are one of my fall favorites for easy dessert recipes. They are delicious straight out of the oven, but I LOVE to dip these in my Homemade Salted Caramel Sauce. I'm guessing you will too!
- If caramel sauce is not your thing, drizzle this apple crescent roll recipe with a simple sugar glaze like you would for cinnamon rolls
- Try serving these easy apple turnovers warm with scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with caramel sauce and topped with a dollop of whipped cream for a special treat!
