These are not what you think of when you think of dumplings. They look like cinnamon rolls, but they're really pastry wrapped around a shredded apple filling. Be sure not to over-cook. I think these came from Better Homes & Gardens a few years ago.

3 c. shredded, peeled cooking apples (3-4 med) such as golden delicious, Rome, Granny Smith, or Newton Pippin

Steps:

  • For sauce, in large saucepan, combine 2 c. sugar, the water, margarine, 1/4 t. cinnamon. Bring to a boil for 5 min; set aside (should have 2 c. sauce) For dough, in a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut until pea-size. Make well in center. Add milk all at once. Stir just until moistened. Knead dough on flour about 10-12 strokes or until nearly smooth. Roll out to 12 x 10 inch rectangle.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well and provide a nice contrast to the sweet filling.
  • Peel the apples thinly: This will help the apple slices to spiralize more easily.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline: This will help you to create thin, even slices of apple.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you crowd the dumplings in the pan, they will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the dumplings over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Baste the dumplings with butter: This will help to keep them moist and golden brown.
  • Serve the dumplings warm: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, topped with ice cream or whipped cream.
