Got this in a recipe swap a few years ago from a woman who owned a small diner. She says customers really enjoyed these, maybe you will too. Eat warm from the oven or re-heat in microwave, scrumptious with vanilla ice cream. Ovens vary so bake time is a guess. Ingredients:
3 cups flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 cup shortening |
6 tablespoons water |
6 medium apples |
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 cup sugar |
4 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 cups water |
Directions:
1. Mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly. Add enough water to make dough. Divide dough into 6 equal parts. Keep covered while making filling.
2. Peel and slice apples. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Set aside.
3. Put syrup ingredients in medium saucepan. Boil for 3 minutes.
4. Roll each pastry piece into a circle. Place apples in center of each circle. Wet edges of pastry and bring up edges around the apples. Pinch to seal.
5. Place dumplings in a 9x12 baking dish. Pour syrup over the top of dumplings.
6. Bake at 425° about 5 minutes or until crust just starts to brown. Reduce temperature to 350° and bake 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
