Apple Dumplings

This is another recipe I got from Sandra at Full Bellies, Happy Kids.  It's Trisha Yearwood's recipe for Apple Dumplings.  They are so delicious but even better, they are quick and easy.

Apple Dumplings

2 apples (I used honey crisp although the recipe calls for granny smith)
1 lemon
1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
8 canned buttermilk biscuits
4 tsp ground cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Peel, core and slice the apples into 8 pieces each.  Squeeze the lemon into a bowl of water and add the apples.  This will keep them from turning brown.

In a saucepan over medium heat, mix 1 cup of water with 3/4 cup of sugar, the butter and the vanilla. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Separate each biscuit into 2 layers.  Wrap each apple slice in a biscuit layer, stretching the biscuit slightly to seal on the bottom.  Place sealed side down in a 9x13 baking dish.

Pour the sugar mixture over the apple slices and mix the remaining sugar with the cinnamon and sprinkle over the top of the wrapped apples.  Bake until golden brown, about 35 minutes.

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Happy Homemaker Monday

   As I look outside my window::: So far today, it is cold and gloomy! Right now I am:::  Sitting on the couch under my crocheted afghan. Thinking and pondering::: On Thanksgiving!  What to fix.  I think I'm getting carried away, but I love it.  On my bedside table::: I haven't been doing much reading lately and I should. Duck Commander Family by Willie and Korie Robertson Frozen by Sarah Nathan and Sela Roman On my tv tonight::: American Horror Story Some Doctor Who specials Playing on the radio::: I don't have anything playing right now, but I'm obsessed with James Blunt's new song, Bonfire Heart. The video is amazing too.  I love the story behind the video.  The people in it are NOT actors.  The wedding scene towards the end, he actually crashed a wedding and captured the bride and grooms first dance.  Amazing.  And, not only is his voice and music wonderful, he's a total hottie. On the menu for ...

Blogmas 2014 - Day 13 How Are You Counting Down To Christmas

Ok, honestly....  I'm not.  I have this gorgeous advent calendar that is 3 building with little numbered doors all over them.  I haven't gotten it out for lack of space and really small children.  Maybe next year.  Also, Ben has been all over the lego ones and stuff so I figure, I'll pick up some next year or as I see them now this year, so each kid can have their own next year.  I don't know maybe I'll just make them if I'm feeling crafty and find the time.  It actually hit us all at once on Saturday that Christmas was less than 2 weeks away.
