Followed recipe and used Envy apples. I was afraid they were too soft and not tart but it turned out perfect! Best apple dumplings I’ve made. Thanks for the recipe!

In reply to Karen Drake Puskarich. Hi Karen! I would try baking them for slightly less time. Your apples may be a bit smaller than mine are. :)

I love this recipe and have tried it twice however I must be doing something wrong. I used Granny Smith apples and they turned out mushy. Crust is great, sauce is great, the taste is perfect but my apples inside are mush. I even shortened the baking time. Help!? Thank you!

This is a great recipe, especially the dough!

I just made these for a fall festival and sold out so fast, I had to go back home and make more!

For an extra cinnamon kick, I added some red hot candies to my syrup. 😋

I also made a little extra of the filling and rolled my apples around in it to coat them.

I’m so happy I found this recipe! Thank you!

My husband loves the syrup in this recipe. I poured it over the apples by accident the first time. Only thing I changed was to use an egg white wash on the pastry before baking. Delicious!

In reply to Chris. Can not wait to make these, my mama used to make these but I misplaced the recipe over the years. I love to watch you! You get right to the recipes and explain them so well, with no nonsense like so many do! Thank you! Keep up the great recipes, I have tried many of them and all have been great!! Happy fall Sam and your adorable boys!!

In reply to Chris. Hi Chris! I have not personally tried freezing these. Please let me know how it goes if you do try it. :)

Delicious! Have you ever tried to freeze this recipe?

You can also use black coffee instead of water that’s what we used at home all the time. It’s great also.

I think the apples were overcooked after 33 minutes. Flavor was good, but I’ll cook at a lower temperature next try.

In reply to Jan. Hi Jan! Is it similar to my vanilla glaze?

By: Jan

My Mom always made a white vanilla sauce to go on top do you have a recipe for this sauce?

In reply to Sharon Reynolds. Hi Sharon! I have never actually experienced this, but I think poking holes is a good idea to try to fix this issue if it happens again.

Dang it! I just took them out of the oven. Exploded and applesauce.
I’m sure they will be delicious, just too hot to tell. 🤷‍♀️
Should you poke a hole in the top for air to escape?
