Spiral Apple Dumplings

Prep Time: 30 min.

 

 

Ingredients

 

2 cups granulated sugar

2 cups water

1/4 cup margarine or butter

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup shortening

2/3 cup milk

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

3 cups shredded, peeled cooking apples (3 to 4 medium), such as Golden

Delicious, Rome, Granny Smith, Jonathan, or Newton Pippin

 

Directions:

 

1. For sauce, in a large saucepan, combine 2 cups sugar, the water,

margarine, 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. Cut into twelve

1-inch-thick pieces. Place in 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Pour sauce over

dumplings. Bake in a 350 degree F. oven about 50 minutes or until golden.

Makes 12 servings.
