Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Combine 2 tbsp (25 mL) sugar and 1/2 -1 tsp (2-5 mL) cinnamon.

Separate dough into 8 triangles; sprinkle sugar mixture into each triangle, flattening each slightly.

Place apple on shortest side of each triangle; tuck in edges around apple slice. Roll up, starting at shortest side and rolling to opposite point. Seal all seams.

Place point side down in ungreased 9-inch (23 cm) round baking pan or pie pan, placing long side of 7 filled crescents around outside edge of dish and 1 in center.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Combine all sauce ingredients. Remove baking pan from oven.

Spoon sauce evenly over partially baked rolls. Sprinkle with almonds and cinnamon. Return to oven.

Bake for an additional 13 to 18 minutes or until deep golden brown. If necessary, cover with foil during last 5 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning.
