Apple Dumplings
|
 |
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup shortening
4 to 5 tablespoons cold water
2 cups chopped peeled tart apples (about 5 medium)
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup water
1/4 cup butter, cubed
Vanilla ice cream
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly.
Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. On a lightly
floured surface, roll out dough into a 12-in. x 18-in. rectangle. Cut into six
squares. Place 1/3 cup chopped apples in the center of each square. Brush edges
of dough with water; fold up corners to center and pinch to seal. Place in a
greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30 minutes.
In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, water and butter; bring to a boil,
stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Pour over dumplings. Bake 25-30
minutes longer or until apples are tender. Serve warm with ice cream.
Yield: 6 servings.
