I know, I know… it has gluten, it has sugar… and these things are not terrific for your health. However, there is something about embracing the traditions passed down every once in a while. They remind you of heartfelt days of the past, love around a table, laughter. It evokes happy and comforting emotions.
And this right here is exactly that. My Grandma’s Apple Dumplings brought us together every single time. And when I make them… same. And when my daughters make them… same. We gather + we belly laugh. Somehow the two go hand in hand.
So here is a short version of the recipe if you already have a pie crust and apple filling you love. BUT I seriously doubt it will out-do my Grandma’s which is on the two image spread below.
(Also - side note: I prefer my dumpling crust a bit thicker than a typical pie crust. )
I’d love to hear how they turn out. Drop a note below in the comments.
