Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.
- FILLING: mix all filling ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.
- CARAMEL: Heat caramel ingredients over medium heat; Bring to boil, stirring constantly; Let boil for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- DOUGH: Mix the flour and oil together in a bowl, and mix in just sufficient cold water to make a firm (but not sticky) dough. Divide dough into 8 equal pieces. Then roll out each into a 5-6" disc.
- ASSEMBLY: Place 1/8th of apple filling onto center of each dough round. Fold up edges of dough up towards the center, making a cup around the filling (you could use a jumbo muffin tin for this too). Brush with eggwash.
- To each blossom, sprinkle 1 tsp of rolled oats followed by a drizzle of caramel topping into tops of apple filling. Follow with a light sprinkle all over with sugar in the raw.
- Bake at 400F for 25-30 minutes or until heated through. Cool on wire rack.
OLD-FASHIONED APPLE DUMPLINGS
These are the ones my grandmother used to make: warm, flaky, apple-y sweet and drizzled with a sauce that bakes right with them. These are not difficult to make, just a little time-consuming. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch pan.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a large rectangle, about 24 by 16 inches. Cut into 6 square pieces. Place an apple on each pastry square with the cored opening facing upward. Cut butter into 8 pieces. Place 1 piece of butter in the opening of each apple; reserve remaining butter for sauce. Divide brown sugar between apples, poking some inside each cored opening and the rest around the base of each apple. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over the apples.
- With slightly wet fingertips, bring one corner of pastry square up to the top of the apple, then bring the opposite corner to the top and press together. Bring up the two remaining corners, and seal. Slightly pinch the dough at the sides to completely seal in the apple. Repeat with the remaining apples. Place in prepared baking dish.
- In a saucepan, combine water, white sugar, vanilla extract and reserved butter. Place over medium heat, and bring to a boil in a large saucepan. Boil for 5 minutes, or until sugar is dissolved. Carefully pour over dumplings.
- Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes. Place each apple dumpling in a dessert bowl, and spoon some sauce over the top.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, ripe apples. Granny Smith apples are a good choice because they hold their shape well when baked.
- To make the apple filling, be sure to cook the apples until they are soft but not mushy. This will help them hold their shape in the mold.
- When you are assembling the mold, be sure to press the apple mixture firmly into the mold. This will help it hold together when it is unmolded.
- To make the glaze, be sure to use a high-quality apricot jam. This will give the glaze a rich, flavorful taste.
- When you are baking the apple blossom mold, be sure to keep an eye on it so that it does not overcook. The mold is done when the apples are tender and the glaze is bubbling.
Conclusion:
Apple blossom mold is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its beautiful appearance and delicious flavor, apple blossom mold is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
