Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 can(s) crescent rolls
1 pkg sweet potato patties (cut in half)
2 c sugar
2 c water
1 1/2 stick butter
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp corn starch
1 1/2 - 2 Tbsp cinnamon for sprinkling on top

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
  • 2. Cut each patty in half.
  • 3. Open and unroll the crescent rolls. Separate the triangles. Place each sweet potato patty on the wide end of each triangle.
  • 4. As you roll up each sweet potato half in the crescent roll, tuck the ends in. They don't have to be perfect, they don't have to be sealed so it's okay if the sweet potatoes aren't completely covered.
  • 5. After you finish rolling them up, place them in a 9x13" glass baking dish with the pointy end of the crescent roll facing down.
  • 6. In a saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and corn starch. Mix well. Add the butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved.
  • 7. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • 8. Pour the sugar mixture over the dumplings.
  • 9. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
  • 10. Bake in the preheated 350° F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
  • 11. Let sit 15-20 minutes before serving.

SWEET POTATO DUMPLINGS RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Sweet Potato Dumplings Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tubes (cans) refrigerated crescent rolls (I used Pillsbury brand)
8 frozen sweet potato (yam) patties, partially thawed
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
good pinch of salt
1 cup Mountain Dew soda
1 cup water
1 teaspoon lemon juice, optional (I used ReaLemon)
5 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Cinnamon for sprinkling the tops
(NOTE: You can omit the Mountain Dew and increase the amount of water to 2 cups.)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. You will need two 11x7 (or equivalent) baking dishes. In a saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Whisk in the Mountain Dew, water, and lemon juice. Cut the butter in pieces (so it melts quicker) and add to the pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; then boil for 3 to 4 minutes, reducing heat if necessary. Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla. Set aside to cool a bit. On a piece of foil on the counter, unroll the crescents and with a sharp knife cut along the triangle perforations. Cut each of the sweet potato patties in half, you will have 16 pieces. Place one patty half on the wide end of each crescent triangle. Roll up, tucking in the ends. (It's okay if the patties aren't completely covered.) Place 8 of them, with pointy ends of rolls facing down, in each of the baking dishes. Pour half the sauce over each pan of dumplings. Sprinkle tops lightly with cinnamon. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until nicely browned. Remove from oven and spoon the thickened sauce over the dumplings. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or room temperature with whipped cream or topping.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings (20 dumplings)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 tablespoons salted butter
3 sprigs thyme, leaves removed
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large onion, sliced thinly
Kosher salt
1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
1/2 cup shredded white Cheddar
1/4 cup sour cream
20 wonton wrappers
1/2 cup white wine
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the thyme, garlic and onion. Cook, stirring, until the onions are golden, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil.
  • Add the potatoes, cheese and sour cream to a small bowl and mix, then set aside.
  • Working one at a time, lay out a wonton wrapper and use your finger to dampen the edge of the wrapper with water. Place 1 tablespoon of the potato mix in the center of the wrapper. Fold into a triangle, sealing the edges and pushing out as much air as possible. Set aside and repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  • Drop the dumplings into the salted water and cook until they rise to the surface, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and add to the skillet with the onions. Cook until the dumplings are golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Deglaze with the white wine, allowing it to boil and reduce, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley and remaining 5 tablespoons butter. Continue to stir until the butter is melted and you have a glossy sauce. Serve immediately garnished with more parsley.
