Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
-
Combine Ingredients:
- In a saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, water, and cinnamon.
-
Boil:
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Stir occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
-
Prepare Dumplings:
- While the sauce is simmering, prepare your apple dumplings. If using frozen dumplings, ensure they are thawed and ready for baking.
-
Pour Sauce:
- Once the sauce reaches a boil and the sugar is fully dissolved, remove it from the heat.
-
Bake:
- Carefully pour the hot sauce over the prepared apple dumplings, ensuring they are evenly coated.
-
Bake:
- Place the apple dumplings in the preheated oven and bake at 425°F (220°C) for the first 20 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize.
-
Reduce Heat:
- After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes. This will ensure the dumplings are cooked through and tender.
-
Optional Addition:
- For an extra touch of richness, consider adding a splash of cream to the sauce just before serving. This will enhance the flavor and add a creamy texture to the dish.
-
Serve:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the apple dumplings from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
-
Enjoy:
- Serve your delicious apple dumplings with a generous drizzle of the warm sauce, and savor every bite of this comforting dessert.
-
Storage:
- Any leftover sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Simply reheat before serving again.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions:
- Pair your apple dumplings with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream for added sweetness.
