Kitchen Equipment Needed:

1. Baking dish
2. Mixing bowl
3. Pastry brush (optional)
4. Knife

Ingredients:

• 2 large ripe peaches, pitted and cut into halves
• 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7UP)
• Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)
• Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Peaches: Cut each peach in half and remove the pits. If the peaches are too firm, you can blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds to 1 minute to help loosen the skins. Peel the skins off the peaches if desired.
3. Wrap the Peaches: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Place one peach half in the center of each triangle of dough. Wrap the dough around the peach, pinching the seams to seal.
4. Arrange in the Baking Dish: Place the wrapped peach halves seam-side down in the prepared baking dish, leaving some space between each dumpling.
5. Make the Syrup: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and cinnamon until well combined. Pour the mixture over the peach dumplings in the baking dish.
6. Add the Soda: Pour the lemon-lime soda evenly over the peach dumplings and syrup mixture in the baking dish.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and bubbling.
8. Serve: Remove the peach dumplings from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream and garnished with fresh mint leaves.
