Hot Apple Dumplings Recipe
Ingredients:
– 2 Granny Smith apples
– 1 cup water
– 1 cup sugar, divided
– 1 stick butter
– 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
– 8 canned biscuits (Pillsbury buttermilk recommended)
– 4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions:
Prep the Apples: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Peel, core, and slice each apple vertically into 8 slices. Submerge slices in cold water to prevent browning.
Make the Syrup: In a saucepan, combine water, 3/4 cup sugar, butter, and vanilla. Heat until sugar dissolves, then bring to a boil.
Wrap the Apples: Divide each biscuit into two layers. Wrap dough around each apple slice, overlapping at the bottom to seal. Arrange sealed side down in a 9×13 inch baking pan.
Add the Syrup: Pour hot sugar mixture over apple slices.
Add Cinnamon Sugar: Mix remaining 1/4 cup sugar with cinnamon. Sprinkle over dumplings.
Bake: Bake for 35 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Enjoy warm, topped with vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Tips:
– Apple Choice: Granny Smith apples complement the recipe with their tartness and firmness.
– Serving Suggestion: Drizzle caramel sauce over dumplings for added decadence.
– Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container. Reheat before serving.
