BACK IN TIME BAKED APPLES WITH VANILLA SAUCE
Wow, this apple dumpling is great! The crust Barbara recommends is light and delicate with a warm cinnamon-filled baked apple inside. What really makes this recipe special is the vanilla sauce. If you make all 12 apples, I would take Barbara's advice and double the recipe for the sauce. It's thick, creamy and a great complement...

Steps:
- 1. VANILLA SAUCE: Bring milk to a boil in a large saucepan. (This will increase in volume while cooking so use a pan that is twice the size you think you need)
- 2. Combine the sugar, salt, cornstarch and egg until well mixed.
- 3. Remove milk from the stove and add the sugar mixture stirring with a wire whisk until completely blended. Return to heat, medium, and boil for 5 minutes stirring constantly.
- 4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Serve sauce warm over apple dumplings. (My bet is you will start doubling this part of the recipe, there can never be too much vanilla sauce.)
- 5. CINNAMON SUGAR MIXTURE: Combine cinnamon and sugar until well mixed.
- 6. EGG WASH: Beat egg, water and salt together with wire whisk until well blended.
- 7. APPLE DUMPLINGS: Roll out dough using either Barb's Favorite Never Fail Pie Crust or your favorite dough recipe, to a rectangle measuring 24 x 18 inches and cut into 12 6 x 6 inch squares.
- 8. Put one peeled and cored apple in the center of each square.
- 9. Pour 1/12 of cinnamon sugar mixture into the cored out center of each apple. (That's about 3 teaspoons each).
- 10. Cover the apples over by bringing the four corners of the square together and sealing by pressing with your hands. Brush with egg wash.
- 11. Place on a greased sheet pan (I use Pam for this), with the folded corners side up.
- 12. Bake in a preheated 450 degree oven for 15 minutes. Then turn the heat to 400 degrees and continue to bake an additional 30 minutes or until apples are tender. (To avoid breaking the crust I use a bamboo skewer to check the apples. They should be easy to pierce when done.)
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:
- Choose the right apples: Look for firm, tart apples such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
- Peel the apples thinly: This will help the dumplings cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the apples into quarters: This will help to prevent the apples from breaking apart when you roll them in the dumpling dough.
- Make sure the dumpling dough is well-chilled before rolling it out: This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and rolling pin.
- Roll out the dough thinly: This will help the dumplings to cook evenly.
- Enclose the apples completely in the dough: This will prevent the apples from drying out during baking.
- Bake the dumplings until they are golden brown and the apples are tender: This will take about 30-35 minutes.
- Serve the dumplings warm with vanilla sauce or ice cream: This will make a delicious and satisfying dessert.
