How To Make apple dumplings

  • Step 1
    Peel and cut apples lengthwise into quarters. I like to use Granny Smith.
  • Step 2
    Use flaky canned biscuit dough. Take each biscuit and separate it to make 2 thinner ones. Flatten out with your hand.
  • Step 3
    Place an apple slice on top of the flattened dough and roll up. Pinch all edges closed, don't leave any holes.
  • Step 4
    Spray a baking dish. Place the apple wrapped pieces in the dish.
  • Step 5
    In a microwave-safe bowl, add water and butter. When butter is melted, stir in sugar to dissolve.
  • Step 6
    Pour over wrapped apples, making sure it goes over all of them. I like to sprinkle cinnamon or apple pie spice on top.
  • Step 7
    Bake in oven at 350 for 45 minutes or until nice and brown.
  • Step 8
    Spoon juices on top and serve.
