I'm not a big fan of apple dumplings, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The dumplings were light and fluffy, and the apples were perfectly tender. I will definitely be making these again.

The dumplings were a little dry, but the apples were delicious. I think I would add a little more liquid to the batter next time.
