Apple Dumpling Cobbler Recipes

APPLE COBBLER FOR TWO

Steps:

• For the filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the apples with 2 heaping tablespoons of the sugar, the flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the butter, and toss. Divide the filling between two 6-ounce, 3 1/2-inch ramekins, tent each loosely with foil and bake until the apples are tender and the juice is bubbling, about 35 minutes. Remove the ramekins from the oven, remove the foil, give the apples barely a stir with a fork and press the top into the juices.
• For the topping: Whisk together the flour, the baking powder, salt and 1 teaspoon of the sugar in a small bowl. Quickly stir in the heavy cream, then work the dough with your fingers as if you were working butter into pie dough, to make moist, slightly flattened chunks of dough.
• Top each ramekin with dough, dividing evenly. Sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining sugar, and bake until the topping is browned and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly, top with ice cream and serve.

APPLE DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch pan.
• Peel and core the apples, then cut each into 8 slices. Roll each apple slice in a crescent roll piece, then transfer to the prepared pan.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the sugar and barely stir. Add the vanilla and stir slightly, then pour the entire mixture over the apples. Pour the citrus soda around the edges of the pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake until golden brown and crispy on top, about 40 minutes.
• Serve, spooning some of the sweet sauces from the pan over the top.

APPLE DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Make the pate brisee: Pulse flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-size pieces remaining. Drizzle with ice water and pulse until mixture holds together when pinched. If dough is too crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time; do not over-process.
• Divide dough into thirds. Transfer to 3 pieces of plastic wrap; knead once or twice. Form into squares and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight, or freeze up to 3 months; thaw overnight in refrigerator before using.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each square of dough into an 8-by-14-inch rectangle. Then cut each square into two 9-inch triangles and some leaves. Use the back of a knife to make the vein markings on the leaves. Keep the pastry chilled and covered with plastic wrap, on parchment-lined baking sheets, until ready to use.
• For the apples: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel apples without removing stems. Working from bottom of each apple, use an apple corer to remove core to within about 3/4 inch from the top. To remove any remaining seeds, use a 1/4 teaspoon. Mix together sugar and cinnamon. Add butter, raisins, zest; stir until thoroughly incorporated. Divide mixture evenly between the cavities of apples. Place in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish along with 3 tablespoons water and bake, basting occasionally with pan juices, until just fork-tender, about 1 hour. Transfer baking dish to wire rack and let cool completely.
• Place an apple onto the center of each pastry triangle. Whisk together egg yolk and cream. Brush edges of pastry with egg wash. Bring edges of pastry together and pinch or press to seal, leaving stems exposed. Garnish dumplings, as desired, with leaves moistened with egg wash to adhere. Return dumplings to parchment-lined baking sheet. Mix together egg yolk and cream. Lightly brush dumplings with egg wash and chill until firm, reserving egg wash.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush dumplings again with egg wash, and bake until nicely browned, 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

You will have 6 squares of dough.
• Remove the stem end from each apple. Place the apple on a cutting board. Using a paring knife, cut around the core by pushing the knife straight down to the bottom of the apple and pull up. Move the knife and make the next cut. Repeat until you have cut around the apple core. Push the core from the apple. (Or remove the cores with an apple corer.) Peel the apples with a paring knife.
• Place 1 apple on the center of each square of dough. In a small bowl, mix the raisins and nuts. Fill the center of each apple with raisin mixture.

Fold in sides of remaining corners; bring corners up over apple and press together. Place dumplings in a 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish.
