Ingredients
  

For the Dumplings
  • 4 medium Peaches Fresh fruit adds natural sweetness and flavor. Can substitute with canned or frozen peaches; if canned, drain well.
  • 2 cans Crescent Rolls Provides the dough structure and flaky texture. Puff pastry can be used as a substitute, but may alter baking time and texture.
  • 1/4 cup Butter Enhances richness and flavor in the dumplings. Melt before using for easy mixing.
For the Sauce
  • 1 cup Sugar Adds sweetness to the dish. Brown sugar can be used for deeper flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Spice that complements the peach flavor. Can omit or reduce based on personal taste.
  • 1 tablespoon All-Purpose Flour Thickens the sauce created by the soda. No substitutions necessary.
  • 1 can Lemon-Lime Soda Creates a sweet, caramel-like sauce while imparting a lightness. Ginger ale or cream soda can be used for different flavor profiles.

Equipment

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Peach Dumplings
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Peel and slice each peach into eight wedges, removing the pit.
  3. Wrap each peach wedge snugly in a crescent roll, ensuring the dough encloses the fruit completely.
  4. Place the dumplings seam-side down in the prepared baking dish, arranged evenly.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, and flour, mixing until smooth.
  6. Pour the butter mixture evenly over the dumplings.
  7. Pour the lemon-lime soda around the edges of the baking dish, avoiding the tops of the dumplings.
  8. Bake the dumplings for about 35 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
  9. Let cool for a few minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream on top.
