List of Ingredients
1-3/4 cups unbleached flour
1 pinch salt
6 oz. butter or margarine, cut into 1/2" pieces
1/4 cup cold water
4 Washington apples
3 cups water
1 cup sugar, divided use
2 tsp. cinnamonRecipe
Heat oven to 425ºF (220ºC). Place flour and salt in bowl of a food processor; add butter. Process until it is fine, a little coarser than cornmeal. Add water and process until a ball of dough just begins to form. Turn food processor bowl upside down onto a flour-covered surface and remove dough. Gently knead a couple of times to form the ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill 30 minutes. Peel and core apples, reserve peels. Thinly slice apples and set aside. Place peels in a saucepan with water and 1/2 cup sugar; bring to a boil, simmer 20 minutes, then strain. Meanwhile roll out dough into a rectangle, acut into 6 (5x5") squares. Divide apple slices evenly, arrange on squares. Sprinkle squares with cinnamon and remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Seal squares around apples by pinching pastry. Place dumplings in a deep, buttered baking dish. Pour enough apple peel liquid into dish to cover dumplings halfway. Bake 40 minutes, basting once. Makes 6.
