Delicious Apple Dumplings from WLW

 

 

I have tried these twice now and we just love them.   I found the recipe at Women Living Well.  They are apple dumplings made with a secret ingredient that you would never guess in a million years.  And is my husbands all time favorite drink.

 

Mountain Dew!  Weird right!

 

 

They are also easy as pie, well actually even easier than that.

 

 

Look at that bubbling.  We had these for breakfast on Thanksgiving for Breakfast.

 

 

Cooked and golden brown!
