Mountain Dew Apple Cobbler Recipe Details:

• Preparation time: 15 minutes
• Baking time: 40-45 minutes
• Servings: 6-8
• Equipment: 9x13-inch baking dish, mixing bowl, knife

Ingredients:

For the Apple Base:

• 2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
• 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8-count)
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare the baking dish by lightly greasing it.
2. Carefully peel and slice the Granny Smith apples. Aim for uniform slices for even cooking.
