Apple Puffs image

Sweet, pink apples topped with biscuit-like dumplings. This was my favorite dessert when I was a child, and I still love it. Fall is not fall if I don't make it. Serve it warm with ice cream or heavy cream.

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 firm apples, peeled and sliced
2 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup water
¼ teaspoon red food coloring
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup shortening
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a 9x12-inch baking dish. Arrange apple slices in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Stir 2 1/2 cups white sugar, water, and food coloring together in a saucepan; bring to a boil and cook until mixture reduces to a thick pink syrup, about 10 minutes. Pour syrup over apples.
  • Melt butter in the same saucepan over medium heat; stir 3 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon into butter until dissolved. Remove from heat.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Cut shortening into flour mixture using two knives or a pastry cutter until mixture has the consistency of coarse crumbs. Stir milk into shortening mixture until a soft dough comes together.
  • Drop dough by the tablespoonful over apples; lightly press the back of a spoon onto each "puff" of dough to form a small dent. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of butter-cinnamon-sugar mixture into each dent.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until dough puffs and apples are tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

These apple puffs were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the apple puffs didn't turn out at all. The puff pastry was raw and the apples were still hard.

The apple puffs didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The puff pastry was a bit dry and the apples were not as soft as I would have liked.
