Apple Dumplings
Ingredients
2 cup sifted flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
6 tbsp shortening
1/2 cup cold milk
6 med apples, pared & cored
1/2 cup sugar

edges of pastry and bring up over the apple; seal edges. Place on

Bake at 350 deg F., or until apples are tender and pastry is lightly
browned. Remove from baking sheet. Serve warm with milk or cream.
