For an extra layer of decadence, consider adding a cream cheese frosting after baking. Feel free to experiment with different apple varieties, such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith, for a unique flavor profile. If you prefer a less sweet result, reduce the amount of white sugar in the sauce.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepUnroll 1 can of crescent rolls onto a cutting board. Gently roll the dough into a single 9x13-inch rectangle, ensuring the seams are sealed. Repeat with the remaining can of crescent rolls. Layer one dough sheet over the other to create a double crust. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
03
StepIn a bowl, combine 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, crushed walnuts, and diced apples. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the double crust. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
04
StepCarefully roll the dough lengthwise into a long, snug tube. Slice the tube into 1-inch thick rolls. Place the rolls, cut-side up, in the prepared baking dish. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
05
StepIn a saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter with 1 1/2 cups white sugar, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and whisk in the citrus-flavored soda. Pour this luscious mixture evenly over the cinnamon rolls. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven until the rolls are golden brown and no longer doughy in the center, approximately 30 minutes. Let them cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before inverting the baking dish onto a baking sheet, allowing the sticky sauce to cascade over the rolls. (Cook time: 30 minutes, Cool time: 10 minutes)
