Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

3 large peaches, peeled and pitted
2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
1 cup butter
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
½ (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle caffeinated citrus-flavored soda (such as Mountain Dew®)
1 pinch ground cinnamon

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Cut peaches into 16 crescent-shaped slices.
Unroll crescent roll dough on a flat work surface and separate into 16 triangles. Place a peach slice at the base of each triangle and roll up to enclose in the dough. Arrange turnovers in a baking pan.
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Pour evenly over the turnovers in the baking pan. Pour citrus-flavored soda over the turnovers. Sprinkle cinnamon on top.
Bake in the preheated oven until turnovers are golden brown and liquid is bubbling, 30 to 40 minutes.
