This is such a great fall recipe! Delicious and different. They are basically apple cinnamon rolls - not sure where the name comes from. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
2 cups water |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
2 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup shortening |
2/3 cup milk |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
3 cups cooking apples, shredded and peeled |
Directions:
1. For sauce~In a large saucepan, combine 2 cups sugar, the water, butter, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and nutmeg. Bring to boiling and boil for 5 minutes; set aside (should have about 2 cups sauce).
2. For dough~In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until pea size. Make well in center. Add milk all at once. Stir just until moistened. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface 10 to 12 strokes or until nearly smooth. Roll out to 12x10 inch rectangle.
3. For filling~Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; set aside. Sprinkle apples evenly over dough. Sprinkle with sugar mixture. Roll dough into spiral, starting from a long side. Pinch seam to seal.
4. Cut into twelve 1 inch thick pieces. Place in 13x9 baking pan. Pour sauce over dumplings. Bake in a 350ยบ oven about 50 minutes or until golden.
