Apple Dumpling recipe.....

Wohoo, someone actually reads my blog AND asked for my apple dumpling recipe, lol!! I know I have a few faithful readers, but these are people I actually know so I'm very excited to have a reader that I've never "spoken" to! Okay, sorry for the excitement, it's raining here and I'm dealing with my first cold of the season so I'm a little drugged up at the moment, lol! Anyway, there really is no "recipe" for my apple dumplings, it's just kind of one of those things that gets passed down through the family, but I'll try my best to estimate on the quantities. This recipe is so stinking easy there's no way you could mess it up unless you burn the dumplings......

You'll need...

Pie crust, homemade or store bought. If using store bought get a couple of packs.

Apples...baking work best because they hold up during cooking. I usually use Granny Smith
but used Jonathon the last time because local Granny Smith aren't ready yet. Peel, core
and slice the apples.

Butter....the real stuff if possible

Brown sugar.....the darker the better.

Cinnamon.


Roll out (or unwrap) the pie crust. If using store bought use one pie crust per dumpling. Place peeled and sliced apples in the middle. Top with about 2TBS butter and 4TBS. brown sugar and then fold the sides of the pie crust up to the top until they all touch. Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake at 350 degrees until the crust is golden, usually about 45min. The brown sugar will melt out, scoop that up and drizzle it over the top when serving warm.

Let me know if you make them and how they turn out!!
