Apple Pie Dumplings

Everyone  loves apple pie right?  So why not make it bite size!  

Ingredients:

  • 5 apples (I like granny smith apples for this)

  • 1 cup of sugar

  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

  • ~50 wraps

  • 1 cup sugar and 1 tbsp cinnamon mixed in a tupperware container with a lid

Other Ingredients:

  • ~40 wraps
  • Cup of warm waterr
  • Deep Fryer or Sauce pan
  • Cooking oil (I prefer peanut oil or coconut oil) 

Note: If you are using a deep fryer you will need a large amount of oil, and coconut oil doesn't agree with deep fryers.  If using Coconut oil, use about one jar in a sauce pan

Directions:

  1. To prepare the apples, peel them and dice into small pieces no larger than 1/2 inch (too large of apple pieces can break through the dumpling wrap)
  2. Stir in the cinnamon and sugar (if you like it sweeter add a bit more sugar, tarter-less)
  3. Scoop a small spoonful into the center of your wrap
  4. For apple dumplings I prefer the "pillow fold"
  5. If you have a square wrap, grab one corner and fold it about 60 percent across towards the opposite corner (if you have a round wrap, just choose any part)
  6. Dab that corner with water and fold it over the top
  7. Then repeat with the other two corners
  8. Be sure to seal the edges to prevent leaks
  9. Either crank up your deep fryer, or add a jar of coconut oil to a sauce pan
  10. Add the dumplings in batches to the oil
  11. Cook until golden brown and then place on a paper towel to drain
  12. Toss in sugar and cinnamon if you like, and Enjoy!
