Submitted by Michelea Wells from Akron



Baked Apple and Dumplings

5lb's apples peeled and cored sliced
4 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tbs. ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

1 tsp. salt

5 cups water

2 1/2 cups apple cider

2 cans refrigerator biscuits 10 count

Combine all ingredients in crock pot except the biscuit dough.

Cook for 4-5 hours on high until thick and bubbly.

Cut the biscuit dough (each one) into quarters. Stir into the crock pot. Cover the pot with a clean terry cloth towel and then replace the lid.

Cook another hour.

The towel helps absorb some of the moisture.

Dumplings will then be doughy.

Serve alone or with vanilla ice cream.

The house smells like a bakery!!
