Along with your peaches, add crescents from a can, brown sugar, white sugar, butter and cinnamon and Fresca pop baked to perfection and then topped off with your favorite vanilla ice cream or whipping cream. You’ll be in heaven.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

• Peal your peaches, or some people like to leave the skins on, you can do either way.
• Cut each peach into 4 equal pieces.
• Place each peach slice on the narrow end of a crescent triangle, then roll it up.
• Place them with the seam down into the prepared baking dish.
• In a microwave safe bowl with a lid, melt the butter.
• Next add the granulated and brown sugar, along with the cinnamon.
• Stir them until everything is well combined.
• With a spoon, go ahead and top each dumpling with the mixture.

What Are Dumplings?

 

• Dumplings are a broad class of dishes that consist of pieces of cooked dough, often wrapped around a filling.

 

 

 

Can I Use Canned Peaches Instead of Fresh Peaches?

 

• Yes! I’ve used canned peaches many times, because fresh peaches are not available in the winter time here.
• The peaches break down a little more, but the dumplings are still really good!
• Note that I prefer fresh peaches if I can get them.

 

 

 

What Purpose Does the Soda Have in This Recipe?

 

• The soda adds necessary carbonation – do not eliminate it, or these dumplings will not turn out right.
• By pouring it around the edges of the pan, it creates moisture to cook the dumplings and an amazing crust on the crescent rolls while baking.
• It also boils down and contributes to the gooey sauce that this dumpling dish has.
• 7-Up, Sprite, or Mountain Dew will also work in this recipe in place of Fresca. I feel that Fresca gives the dumplings a hint of citrus flavor. Plus Fresca has zero calories, so I feel that that is a plus too.
