Breakfast is served. Or dessert. Maybe even a snack. Apple Dumplings are one of my favorite comfort foods when the weather gets colder. I prepped these last night & I threw them in the oven this morning, fifty minutes later the kitchen smelled better than a cinnamon candle & breakfast was done.
If you have never made these before, you are missing out. You only need a few ingredients & minimal effort to make Apple Dumplings that are guaranteed to get rave reviews.
Apple Dumplings with Cranberry Cinnamon Sauce

Persons
4
Serving Size
1 apple dumpling
Ingredients
- 4 medium sized apples, any variety
- 1 can of biscuit dough - I use Pillsbury Grands because they have 8 biscuits & I use two biscuits per apple.
- Cranberry Cinnamon Sauce:
- 1 12 ounce can of whole cranberry sauce
- 1 cup of water
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 1/4 cup of sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Pre heat your oven to 300 degrees.
- Wash, core & peel your apples.
- Peeling the apple is optional, I really don't mind the skin left on but it's up to your preference.
- Use two biscuits to cover & wrap each half of the apple completely.
- Press the ends of the biscuits in the middle together tight, they may separate in the oven a bit if you don't.
- Place the biscuit wrapped apples in an oven safe pan sprayed with cooking spray & poke a few holes in the tops with a fork.
- Bake for about 50 minutes or until the apples are soft & cooked. Poke with a fork to test them.
- Combine cranberry sauce, water, corn starch, & sugar in a sauce pan.
- Cook over a heat low & stir until you break down the cranberry sauce.
- Stir in butter & cinnamon.
- Bring sauce to a boil & remove from heat.
- When your apples are 5 minutes away from being done, cover them with sauce & bake for 5 minutes.
- Serve hot & enjoy.

I just left the comments and read the post again for the fourth time. I am really curious about how this would taste. I definitely am going to have to try this.

I can’t believe you have never heard of them before! I always thought they were common & that I was being creative by adding cranberries & biscuit dough! You have to try them, they are easy & you will not believe how good they are!!

I was trying to think of a great morning meal for Thursday. We are in such anticipation of the afternoon dinner that I’d like something to start the day with a treat that is out of our normal routine and these are it! Thank you for the inspiration.
Raquel says
These would be perfect, I plan on making these Christmas morning when I go visit my bf’s parents but I’m still undecided on Thanksgiving morning…gulp. Let me know how you like them!!!!

Found this on foodfotogallery. It looks so wonderful that I had to just stop by and tell you so. I don’t bake all that often, but this appears to be something I just might be able to handle. Thanks for sharing.
