Apple Dumpling with an Apple Papillote

Let's start off with the Apple Dumpling

This was basically a peeled apple, cored, with raisins running down the middle covered with a pastry dough and then baked. This is a classic dish & the way you would eat this is to lift the outer shell of the cooked pastry which should easily come off & a steaming, cooked apple will be sitting there ready for you to eat!

The Apple Dumpling sat on top of an Apple Papillote. I have taken pictures of the process of a Papillote below. We basically sliced the apple, placed pieces of butter & the apple slices on a parchment sheet (like in the pic below) and sprinkled some spices on top of each slice like cinnamon & then more butter & then we twisted the parchment sheet so that all the heat is trapped in & all the flavors from the spices will absorb into the apple. When the Apple Papillote was done baking in the oven, we placed it on a plate & placed the Apple Dumpling on top. Plain, unflavored yogurt (on the side) goes well with this dish.

If you would like to know more about this dish, or the method then feel free to send me an email! :) The pictures of the process & my final product are below.

The final product - Apple Dumpling sitting on an Apple Papillote with a unflavored yogurt on the side.

The apple slices laying ready & seasoned on a parchment sheet.

Parchment sheet twisted so the heat will stay in the 'basket' once in the oven & the flavors will infuse well into the apple slices.

Apple Papillotes cooked & out of the oven.

Until next time, keep your life frosted! <3
