🍎 Easy Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings (Fall Favorite!) 🍂

If you need a quick, cozy fall dessert, this is it. Crescent rolls + fresh apples + buttery cinnamon sauce… and yes, Mountain Dew makes them extra golden and delicious! ✨

Excited to share this recipe with you today, but first, I wanted to say thank you to @belleofthebanquet for requesting more fall recipes - hope you love this one Cynthia! Check out her amazing recipes too if you haven’t already, you won’t be disappointed!

Here’s what I used:
2 cans @pillsbury crescent rolls
2 Granny Smith apples (sliced)
2 sticks of melted butter
1 ½ cups sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 can Mountain Dew (poured around, not on top!)
Sprinkle with 1/8 tsp cinnamon after baking

Each crescent gets wrapped around an apple slice, covered in the buttery sugar mixture, topped with Mountain Dew, and baked to golden perfection. So simple!

Would you try these?

🍕 Easy Flatbread Pizzas (4-Ingredient Dinner Idea!) 🍕 
If you need a quick and delicious dinner idea — this one’s a keeper!

Here’s how I make them: ✨ Preheat oven to 400°F. ✨ Bake @stonefirenaan bread for 5 minutes. ✨ Add pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and turkey pepperoni. ✨ Bake another 5 minutes — and that’s it!

Crispy, cheesy perfection in a matter of minutes. 😋 Feel free to include your favorite toppings! This recipe pairs so well with a salad 🥗.

Just as the weather changes throughout the year, our lives have different seasons too. No matter what that may look like right now, I’m encouraging you (and me too!) to stay present and know that there’s a purpose behind every path. 🍂

Let’s lean into being mindful and embracing patience - you never know what may happen by the end of this year!

Unboxing + trying out the Sonicsmooth by @michaeltoddbeauty, and I’m so impressed! 😍

This dermatologist-approved tool exfoliates and removes peach fuzz painlessly at home—leaving my skin feeling baby soft (even days later!).

✨ Fun facts about dermaplaning: ✔️ Instant glow—removes dull skin & peach fuzz for a radiant complexion! ✔️ Smoother skin = better makeup application (foundation glides on like a dream!). ✔️ Boosts skincare absorption—your serums & moisturizers can penetrate deeper. ✔️ Gently removes buildup—exfoliates the top layer of dead skin for a fresh, clean feel.

If you’ve been thinking about dermaplaning, this is such an easy way to do it yourself! 🥰
