100% would make again

Mother often prepared this special treat for us, ready to take out of the oven just as we came home from school. I remember so vividly, upon opening the door to the house, the magnificent aroma!

I made this for my family and there are a few who don't even like apple pie, and they loved it.

Apple dumplings always look so good (from the pictures). My grandmother made us baked apples instead of apple dumplings but I would love to try an apple dumpling one day!
