These were fantastic. I did dice the apples and tossed with a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon before I stuffed them into the biscut. They baked up so good in the sweet cinnamon butter sauce and tasted fantastic with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Thanks for the great recipe I am sure I will make this again.

This recipe was just like the apple dumplings I remember as a kid! Very yummy. I did take the advice of others, and not use as much water with the sauce, and I did use pie crust instead of biscuit dough. I did let the apples sit in 2TBS sugar and 1tsp of cinnamon, before adding them to the pie crust.

I peeled 2 apples and used an apple corer that also made 8 equal segments. I rolled out a Grand's Flaky Biscuit and placed 3 or 4 quarters inside the dough. I pulled the sides up and pinched at the top. This reminded me of an old fashioned apple dumpling that I grew up eating. I baked it in the oven for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Meanwhile, I melted on the stove, butter, sugar, vanilla and water. I let it come to a quick boil and then took it off the heat. I think that helped to thicken it back up. (although, I think you could use less water in the recipe) Then I poured that over the dumplings and I think since the pinched dough was at the top, the "juice" poured down inside the dumpling and helped to flavor the apples. I sprinkled with cinnamon and baked 30 minutes more. I served with cinnamon ice cream.

Very good flavor. I used pie crust instead of biscuits, half orange juice and half water. I also rolled the apple piece in suger cinnamon. Next time I will use less butter. I also cooked the dumplings without sauce for 10-15 minutes on each side. I did not find this to be watery at all. Will certainly make it again.

Nice, rustic and simple dessert. I followed others advice and combined sugars (1/2c ea)& added nutmeg. Baked dry 10 min., flipped, baked 10 more, then added sauce (bake 15 min). Overall, very good, but the sauce turned what I assumed would be crispy kind of mushy. Will try again doing sauce on stovetop and pour over or serve with at end.

I followed the recipe exactly and thought this was just OK (thought liquid part was too watery), but my husband liked it, thus the 4 starts. It was easy to make. I may try again with suggestions from previous reviews.

I don't know how this recipe got to be so highly rated. I reread the recipe several times to make sure that I just hadn't fixed it wrong. It was kind of tasty, but definitely not 5-star worthy. I would have liked more flavor and less sweetness. It was definitely better warmed up the next day.

I LOVE this recipe and have used it over and over. I only use 1 granny apple and use an apple corer to cut into 8 pieces...so each apple slice is used for 1 biscuit. Modifications: I also use 1/2 cup orange juice (gives it a kick), 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar...and NO butter. Once I made this recipe and forgot to use the butter and it was fine! Since then, I haven't used butter, because it still tastes!!!!

It's sooo good! Hmmm Yummm... I halved the apples, sliced it thinly but made sure it was still in tact, used the "best ever pie crust" recipe from this site which truly is the best!, instead of biscuits, and it still came out delicious. Substitute the water with OJ, half brown sugar half white sugar, baked it dry 10 min, flip it over and baked for another 10 min, poured the sauce on, put it back to the oven for another 15 to 20 min. SOOO GOOD!

I wanted to capture the taste of individual apple pies with these so I substitued frozen pie shells for the dough. I let the shells thaw in the fridge overnight so they were ready to go the next day. At first I was concerned with making everything pretty. Half way through I realized if I put the apple on the section of pie shell, drizzled some sauce on and folded the top over, I could more or less gently mash the shell together around the apple quarter. The last half looked/tasted just as good and took much less than half the time. These had all of the flavor of a good apple pie with less work. Vanilla ice cream optional!
