Ingredients

  • 3 cups sifted all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4  honeycrisp apples - peeled, cored and halved
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease one 13x9 inch baking pan.

  2. Combine 1/2 cup of the white sugar with the ground cinnamon and the ground nutmeg; set aside.

  3. Measure sifted flour, add baking powder, salt, and 3 tablespoons sugar, and sift again. Cut shortening into sifted ingredients until mixture looks like coarse meal. Add milk, mixing until a soft dough is formed.

  4. Knead dough on lightly floured board half a minute. Divide dough in half. Roll each half to a 1/8 inch thickness. Cut eight 5 inch squares out of the dough.

  5. Place an apple half in the pan Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of the sugar-spice mixture.

  6. Place the dough on top of each apple and moisten edges of dough and bring corners up over apples, pressing edges together.

  7. Place uncovered apples in the prepared baking pan.

  8. Mix together brown sugar, butter, salt, and water and molasses; bring to a boil. Pour over top of dumplings in the pan.

  9. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 to 50 minutes, or until apples are tender. Serve warm. The brown sugar mixture forms a delicious butterscotch sauce around the dumplings.
