I found this old recipe book at a yard sale this summer for 25 cents! The book was old and moldy. I took it apart and dried the pages in the sun on and off all summer. I finally put it all back together recently and came across this recipe! I have updated it to save time while waiting for Trick or Treaters to arrive. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Apple Dumplings
4 Apples (any variety)
1 Box of pre-made Pastry
1/2 C Sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 pinch of allspice
1 Tbsp raisins (opt)
2 Tbsp Milk
2 Tbsp Butter (cut in little pieces)
Oven 375 degrees
Core and peel the apples.
Mix sugar, cinnamon, allspice in a small bowl.
Roll pastry in between sheets of plastic wrap to about 1/4" thickness. (my sister taught me this trick but she's a pastry expert..she makes her own wonderful dough). Using plastic wrap stops the dough from sticking.
Cut 6" squares. Stack cut squares in separate sheets of plastic wrap until ready to assemble dumplings.
Put one heaping teaspoon of sugar, a few raisins (opt.) and little dabs of butter in hole of apple.
Fold corners of pastry up to apple and pinch along sides to close.
The "pinch"
Place in non-greased baking dish and brush each dumpling with a little milk.Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top.
Bake at 375 for 35 minutes.Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea..or maybe a glass of ice cold milk!
