Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
If using canned peaches, drain them. If using fresh, peel and slice them into wedges.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles.
Place one peach slice at the wide end of each dough triangle and roll it up, tucking the ends in slightly.
Arrange the rolled dumplings in the prepared baking dish.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined but do not boil.
Pour the butter-sugar mixture evenly over the dumplings.
Pour the lemon-lime soda around the edges of the dish—avoid pouring directly on top of the dumplings.
Bake for 35–40 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the sauce is bubbling.
Let cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Use fresh or canned peaches—just make sure to drain canned peaches well.Do not pour soda directly on top of the dumplings to keep the tops crisp.Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for best flavor and texture.This dessert is best fresh but can be reheated in the microwave or oven.A pinch of nutmeg or chopped nuts can add extra flavor and texture.
