Make a Crust as for Soda Biscuits,
peel and core your Apples,
cut the Dough in square pieces,
and put 1 Apple for each Dumpling;
put them in a dripping pan,
and place in the oven for 5 minutes,
then make a Syrup with Water and Sugar
(1 c. Sugar to 1 pt. Water),
and pour into the dripping-pan;
baste with the Syrup while they are cooking;
when done
eat with Sweet Cream.
