Ingredients

  • 2 medium-sized peaches quartered and pitted (Opt for canned peaches if preferred. Refer to Recipe Insights below.)
  • 8- ounce pack of Pillsbury crescent roll dough
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter equivalent to 1 stick
  • 1/3 cup each of granulated and brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup Fresca citrus soda
  • Vanilla ice cream optional, for serving

Instructions

  • Set your oven to preheat at 350°F. Spray an 8x8 baking dish with non-stick spray.
  • Layout crescent dough and divide into 8 triangle shapes.
  • Position a peach slice near the triangle's narrower end and wrap it up. Ensure the ends are sealed. Arrange these in the prepped baking dish.
  • Using a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter. Introduce both sugars and cinnamon. Stir until a smooth consistency is achieved.
  • Gently pour this buttery mixture over your dough.
  • Carefully add Fresca around (not over!) the dumplings to ensure they develop a crusty finish during baking.
  • Bake until they achieve a golden hue and peaches are fork-tender. This should take roughly 35 minutes. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes post-baking.
  • Ready to indulge? Serve as a luxurious dessert with vanilla ice cream or even as a lavish morning treat!

Notes

  • There's no need to peel fresh peaches; they soften beautifully during baking. However, if you're particular, feel free to do so. When opting for canned peaches, a 29-ounce can of Halves is perfect.
  • While Fresca adds a citrusy punch and comes with zero calories, you can also use 7-Up, Sprite, or Mountain Dew as alternatives. Remember, these might slightly alter the calorie count.
  • Preparing for a larger gathering? Simply double the quantities and use a 9x13 pan for baking.
