Instructions
Preparing the Dumplings
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mix sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
- Beat the egg yolk in another bowl to create your egg wash.
- Peel and core the Granny Smith apples gently, leaving them whole.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface until it’s a square, about ⅛ inch thick.
- Cut the pastry into four equal squares and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Position one apple in the center of each square and pour 1 tablespoon of heavy cream into the core of each.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the apples.
- Fold the corners of the pastry over the apples and pinch to seal securely.
- Brush the outer pastry with the egg wash you prepared earlier.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Serve warm with a dusting of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
