Assembly
Directions:
For syrup, mix sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and water in
saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5
minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter. Cool.
For pastry, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening
until coarse crumbs form. Add cold water a little at a
time, mixing until moistened. Form into a ball. Roll
into 18 x 12 inch rectangle. Cut into 6 squares. Place
3/4 C. chopped apple in center of each square. Mix
sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg together. Sprinkle a small
amount over each fruit filled square. Moisten edges of
pastry. Fold corners to center atop fruit. Pinch to
seal.
Freezing and Cooking Directions:
Apple dumplings may be baked and frozen OR frozen
before baking. Syrup may be frozen separately.
To bake, place 6 dumplings in an 11 x 7 baking
pan. Pour syrup over dumplings. Bake at 475 degrees
for about 45 minutes or until fruit is tender and
dumplings are brown.
Comments:
*Apple equivalents: Large apple = 2 C. chopped, Medium
apple = 1 1/2 C. chopped, Small apple = 3/4 C. chopped
For some reason, I always thought that apple dumplings
were complicated to make. Just think of them as
individual apple pies. These are easy to freeze, thaw
and bake or reheat for an individual sized dessert.
