Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Vegan butter
- 5 tablespoons Cold water
- 4 Medium Granny Smith apples
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 cup Raisins (optional)
- 1.5 cups Water
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Vegan margarine
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut the vegan butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the cold water, a tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough holds together. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate while preparing the filling.
Peel and core the apples, leaving them whole. Mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and raisins (if using) in a small bowl.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into four equal squares.
Place an apple on each square and fill the core with the sugar mixture. Bring the dough up around the apple to enclose it, pinching the edges to seal. Place in the prepared baking dish.
Combine the water, granulated sugar, vegan margarine, and vanilla extract in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, and pour the hot mixture over the dumplings.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the pastry is golden brown.
Serve warm with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of the sauce from the baking dish.
