A couple of weeks ago I was cleaning out the freezer and found a package of Apple dumplings I had purchased from a school fund raiser. I baked all of them night as I was getting company. They came with a cinnamon sauce to pour over them and with a dollop of whipped cream they were really yummy. Do you make them from scratch? What do you use on the outside? It was flakier then a pie crust so I was wondering if you used a puff pastry or what on them?

My grandmother use to make killer apple dumplings. They were fantastic. She made them from scratch but can't remember what she used other than flour and water. Once upon a time I had the recipe and if I can find it will send it to you. We use to beg for them when a kid. My mom also made them a few times but it wasn't the same. The one time I made them nobody ate them...lol Pretty bad. We use to use real cream and eat them hot hot hot.

These came with a cinnamon sauce that made them so yummy. But I think a little ice cream and carmel over them might be good too!

I don't think I have ever had apple dumplings. From what you have described they sound awesome. I might have to look up a recipe for them. It sounds like something I might try for our next family get together.

My daughter in law had never had them either~! She wants to learn how to make them so hope you find a good recipe. Above reply said to use pie crust so maybe we can buy a pic crust and just core the apples and cover them! THanks for posting.

I have made them in culinary class from scratch. We used a pie crust with a brown sugar syrup over them with homemade whipped cream. They came out soooo good. I am accualy thinking about making them this weekend.
