Ingredients:

• 2 prepared pie crusts
• 6 apples
• ½ cup of butter
• ¾ cup of brown sugar
• 1 tsp of cinnamon
• ½ tsp of nutmeg
• 2 cups of water
• 2 cups of sugar
• 1 tsp of real vanilla

Directions:

Step 1

Peel each apple, then remove its core without cutting them into sections and set them aside. In a saucepan, add the water, sugar, vanilla, and half a stick of butter, then stir them lightly and place the saucepan on a stove over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a boil for about 5 minutes and keep an eye on it, then stir occasionally to avoid burning at the bottom. Divide each pie crust into 3 flattened squares, then place the apple at the center of the dough, and pour a heaping tablespoon of brown sugar at the empty core.

Step 2

Mix together the cinnamon and nutmeg, then some on top of the apple, and place a tablespoon of butter on top as well. Gather the corners toward the center, then pinch the seams close, and squeeze the dough into the apple to make a ball. Repeat this process with the rest of the apples and the remaining ingredients, then transfer them into a baking dish, check on the syrup, and once thickened, pour over the apple dumplings. Let them bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for about 45 minutes to an hour, then serve, and enjoy!
