Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Soak the raisins in hot water for 15 minutes before adding them to the dumplings. This will help to plump them up and make them more flavorful.
  • Use a combination of light and dark brown sugar for a richer flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the dumplings tough.
  • Drop the dumplings into the boiling water gently. Don't overcrowd the pot, or the dumplings will stick together.
  • Cook the dumplings until they are light and fluffy. A toothpick inserted into the center of a dumpling should come out clean.
  • Serve the dumplings warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
