Ingredients

1 medium Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cans (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls (8 Count)
3/4 cup butter, melted

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray.

In large bowl, mix apple, 1/2 cup of the brown sugar, the flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon; stir well. Unroll 1 can of dough; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of the cinnamon, pressing lightly into dough. Cut dough into 1-inch squares (8 rows by 12 rows), and transfer to bowl with apples. Repeat with remaining dough, 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Carefully stir apples and dough until coated, separating any clumps of dough. Spoon mixture into baking dish.
3

Pour melted butter over casserole. Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until dough is thoroughly baked and top is deeply browned. Cool 10 minutes.
