Slice an apple into eight wedges using a sharp knife or an apple slicer.    Divide the chopped pecans evenly between each of the crescents.  Take the apple slices and toss them in the melted butter. Add one apple slice to the wide end of your crescent roll, and roll it up towards the narrow end. Repeat for the remaining rolls.

Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and place onto your parchment covered cookie sheet. Bake 9-10 minutes until crescents begin to turn golden brown and remove from oven.  Make the caramel sauce and drizzle it over the top of these flaky apple cinnamon rolls.   These little apple Roll-ups are served as soon as they come out of the oven.
