ANNE'S APPLE DUMPLINGS

Posted On: 2015-08-26 07:10:20

INGREDIENTS:

6-8 small-medium granny smith apples
¼ cup sugar
2 teaspoons mixed spice
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 puff pastry sheets
Whipped cream/Ice cream to serve

SYRUP INGREDIENTS:
½ cup sugar
1 cup water
2 Tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons mixed spice
2 teaspoons cinnamon

DIRECTIONS:

Peel & core apples.

Mix sugar, mixed spice & cinnamon.

Take a puff pastry sheet & roll out just a little & cut into quarters.

Place 1 apple in the middle of each quarter.

Spoon several teaspoons of the sugar-spice mix down the core area of each apple.

Wrap pastry around each apple: you can decorate with pastry leaves if desired.

Repeat for all apples.

At this point you can freeze the apple dumplings.

It’s best to freeze as free flow, so that you can take them out as you need them.

To cook, place the apples into an ovenproof dish.

Make a syrup by boiling sugar, water, butter & mixed spice & cinnamon for 5 minutes.

Pour over the dumplings & cook 30-40 minutes in a medium-high oven.

Baste (spoon the cooking juices over the dumplings) halfway through the cooking time.

Place one apple on each plate & spoon over some of the syrup from the bottom of the dish.

Serve with whipped cream or ice cream … or both.
