Homemade Apple Cider Glazed Dumplings

Our apple dumplings are one of my family and friends favorite Autumn dessert I make!

We use Dufour puff pastry, local apples & local apple cider. I live in the countryside of New Jersey with several wonderful farms & cider mills.

If you have questions on any of our recipes please feel free to email us.

Recipe:

Core apples ( we typically make 6 dumplings)

Add a small Pat of salted butter & 1 heaping tablespoon of light brown sugar

Add a very small pinch of ground cinnamon

Roll out thawed Dufour puff pastry

Wrap each apple

We typically can make 4 dumplings per one sheet of puff pastry

Bake in pre heated oven check around 20 minutes so they don’t over brown

cool and add icing

Apple cider icing:

Combine

1 or 2 tablespoons of maple syrup OR 2 tablespoons of apple cider

1 cup confectionery sugar

1 tablespoon of heavy cream

(You can easily double the icing- add more apple cider or more powdered sugar to get the consistency you want)

Add milk and heavy cream slowly, and add more if needed to thin the icing

Preheat oven to 400 degrees (all ovens are different so be careful not to burn or overcook your dumplings. We used an ovenproof ceramic casserole dish to bake in. We only put 4 dumplings per baking dish as to NOT overcrowd them and allow them for o puff up into a beautifully delicious buttery dessert.

The buttery apple filling will thicken up as your dumplings come to room temperature. Eat them warm and let them melt into a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Either way it’s absolutely delicious.
