My grandmother’s apple dessert is genuine regional fare. With 13 children plus the men at Grandpa’s sawmill, she had to do lots of cooking each day! —Megan Newcombe, Cookstown, Ontario

Ingredients

  • 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 1/4 cup cold butter
  • 2/3 cup sour cream
  • FILLING:
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 6 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled and coarsely shredded (about 5 cups)
  • TOPPING:
  • 2-1/2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half cream

Directions

  • 1. In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening and butter until crumbly. Add sour cream and blend until a ball forms.
  • 2. Roll out on a floured surface into a 15x10-in. rectangle. Spread with softened butter; sprinkle with remaining filling ingredients.
  • 3. Roll up jelly-roll style starting with a long side. Cut into 12 slices. Place slices, cut side down, in a 13x9-in. baking pan.
  • 4. For topping, combine water, brown sugar and cinnamon in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; remove from the heat. Stir in the cream.
  • 5. Carefully pour hot topping over dumplings. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35 minutes or until bubbly. (Center will jiggle when dumplings are hot out of the oven but will set as dumplings stand for a few minutes.) Serve warm.
