PEACH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until tender. Remove from heat, drain, and put through a ricer or mash.
• Place the riced potatoes onto a large clean work surface. Crack the egg over the top, then gradually work in the flour with your hands until you get a nice stiff dough. You may not need to use all of the flour, or you may need to use more. This could take as long as 30 minutes, or just seem like it. Let the dough rest for a minute before rolling.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness. You may need to roll out 1/2 at a time. cut the dough into 8x8 inch squares - larger or smaller depending on the size of your peaches. Wrap each peach in a square of dough, and pinch all of the seams to seal it in.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place the peach dumplings into the water. The peach should be as close to covered with the water as it can get. We usually had 2 or 3 pots with boiling water because you can only fit about 3 to 4 peaches per pot. Boil for 20 minutes, rotating after 10 for even cooking. Remove from water using tongs or a large slotted spoon.
• To serve, place a peach dumpling onto a plate, and cut it up. Remove the pit, and sprinkle with melted butter, sugar and vanilla wafer crumbs.

MOM'S HOMEMADE PEACH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot or dutch oven, combine the peaches & syrup/juice, water, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and butter. Over medium heat, cover and bring mixture to a boil; stirring occasionally to ensure butter and seasonings are well dispersed. Cook for approximately 15 minutes. **You can add more sugar to taste once the peaches have cooked for a little while.
• 2. While the peaches are cooking, prepare the dumpling dough. Sift the flour in a medium or large bowl. Cut the shortening into the flour until you get a mealy consistency. Gradually add the cold water, mixing just until the dough holds together. Do not add too much water. Knead lightly 4 to 5 times. ~ Mealy Consistency - you will finely cut the shortening into the flour.
• 3. On a floured surface, roll out the dough very thinly (no thicker than about 1/4" thick). Cut into 2 to 2 1/2 inch wide strips; then cut each strip diagonally into even pieces. ~~Picture is of my mom kneading and cutting the dough strips. I just had to add her in this!
• 4. Place enough strips of dough into the boiling peach mixture to cover and press them down into the juice. Cook those strips for approximately 7 minutes. Repeat the process (of adding dough strips & cooking) until all of the dough has been used up. Cook until the dumplings look translucent and start to settle into the juice and the juice thickens....then they are done. *Once you add & start cooking the dumplings, you may need to add a little more water.

FRESH PEACH DUMPLINGS SERVED WITH HARD SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Cut in the butter flavored shortening using your hands or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the ice water over the dough, and stir until the mixture comes together. Knead the dough briefly, then divide into 6 pieces.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• On a lightly floured surface roll out each piece of dough into a thin circle. Place two peach halves together, and wrap in each circle of dough, sealing at the top. Place the dumplings onto an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake dumplings for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. While the dumplings are baking, make the sauce. In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, egg, nutmeg, vanilla and salt using an electric mixer on low speed. Gradually mix in the confectioners' sugar. Spoon over warm dumplings.

OLD FASHIONED SUMMER PEACH DUMPLINGS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Roll out the dough into a rectangle so it is about an 1/8 of an inch thick (no more than a 1/4 inch). Cut the dough into 6 squares. On sheet pan lay out your peach halves. If you'd like, you can peel the peaches, but it is not necessary. Sprinkle the sugar and spices evenly over the peaches. Drizzle a few drops of vanilla onto the peaches then add a bit of the butter to the center of each peach half. Now take 2 halves of the peach and close them with the butter, sugar and spices inside. Hold them closed. Place the held closed peach into the center of a dough square. Pull the sides of the dough up around the peach. pinch the dough closed to seal the peach inside. Once the dough is closed, with your hand gently mold the dough so it hugs the peach and stays in shape. If you have extra dough hanging cut it off (you will gather the extra dough scraps and make leaves later). Repeat this with all of the peaches. Heat your oven to 450 degrees. In a baking dish that will fit comfortably all of your peaches gently place your dough covered peaches. Set the baking dish in the fridge while you make the sauce and leaves. The leaves are just cute, leave them off if you are not in the mood for the fuss. In a small saucepan heat the sugar and the butter. When the sugar begins to color swirl the pan to make the sugar color evenly. Be very careful...the sugar is EXTREMELY HOT. This should not be done by, or with, children!!!! When the sugar has taken on a nice amber color add the heavy cream. With a whisk make sure all the sugar is dissolved. Add the brandy, continue to stir. Once you no longer smell alcohol turn the heat down and reduce the sauce (at a simmer) for a couple of minutes. Take the sauce off the heat once its a slightly thickened and add the vanilla, salt and the final tablespoon of butter . Combine with the whisk. You should have a smooth velvety wonderful flavored caramel sauce. This stuff is delicious even without the dumplings!!!!! Now gather your dough scraps and re-roll them so you can cut out leaf shapes to garnish your dumplings. You can make the leaf veins using the back of your knife. Egg wash the dumplings and attach the leaves (I made two leaves per dumpling). Next, sprinkle sanding sugar over the dumplings.Now you will pour the caramel sauce into the pan with the dumplings without pouring the sauce onto the dumplings themselves. This is very important!!! The sauce should go between and around but NOT over or on the dumplings. Bake the dumplings at 450 degrees for about 45 minutes. If they seem to be getting too dark turn the temperature down to 400 for the last 10 minutes or so. Use your judgement on that. Have a platter ready to move the dumplings to when you take the pan out of the oven. The dumplings will need to be moved after they rest in the pan for 5 minutes. Use a spatula to move them. They will be fragile on the bottom. The sauce will be caramelized and thick. Drizzle a little of it over the dumplings or around the sides. Serve while warm, with ice cream if you like.

LADY ROSE'S BRANDY PEACH COBBLER WITH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. I would prefer using fresh or frozen peaches but during the off season I used canned variety. I used the gallon size to make both the pie and the cobbler. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. These are the canned peaches that I used. I did not use the lemon juice in this recipe because of the Brandy.
• 2. Separate peaches from liquid, cut into thirds and reserve liquid.
• 3. Add enough water to peach liquid to make about 6 cups.
• 4. Combine the dry ingredients together, sugar, salt, nutmeg, flour, & cinnamon
• 5. Break one of the refrigerated dough shells into small pieces to be used as dumplings. Set aside till needed to add to peach liquid.
• 6. Add the dry blend ingredients to the liquid, and stir just until it begins to thicken. Simmer over medium high heat.
• 7. Stir in the dumplings and cook over medium high heat just long enough to prevent them from sticking together about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the peaches. Then remove from heat. Add the butter and stir till it melts.
• 8. Then add the vanilla bean paste or extract, butter extract, and Peach brandy in a small cup, stir into liquid mixture.
• 9. Add about a HALF of peach mixture to bottom of a 9 X 13 size baking pan, & top with a pie crust. Place in 375 degrees F. oven and bake for about 15 minutes. THEN REMOVE FROM OVEN. IF YOU WANT TO ADD 4 CRUSTS TO COBBLER, ADD ONE TO BOTTOM OF PAN BEFORE ADDING THE PEACH MIXTURE.
• 10. REMOVE FROM OVEN, and add remaining peach mixture. TOP WITH ADDITIONAL CRUST. Brush top of cobbler with egg wash and then add sparkling sugar crystals. Place cobbler on a larger shallow pan lined with foil to catch any potential drips before adding the last of the cobbler liquid for the oven.

• 5. Leftovers are good when heated up in the oven, toaster oven or microwave.
• 6. TIP: I have doubled the recipe when I had several apples that I needed to cook. I just put a can of crescent rolls in the bottom of the dish, put several sliced apples on that and another can of crescent rolls on top. I then poured the boiled mixture over that and baked until golden brown. It's very good that way, too. And I have certainly used other apples besides the granny smith. Also, I have used half granulated sugar and half brown sugar. Sometimes I omit the vanilla. They're good any way you make them.
• 7. HEARTH METHOD BY DANA RAMSEY: Follow Steps 1 and 2 of the Modern Method. Prepare your fire and preheat your Dutch Oven including the lid by simply placing both near the fire and turning them to make sure they both are preheated evenly. In a small kettle hung over the fire, bring to a boil the butter, sugar and water. Remove from heat and add vanilla and cinnamon. Pour over the apples. Now a trivet inside your Dutch Oven. (Note if you do not have a trivet you can use 3 canning rings). Place the baking dish or pan on top and place lid on. Carefully put the Dutch Oven on a bed of coals prepared by making a bed of ash and then adding the nice red hot coals. Place more coals on the lid. Replace as coals die down, every 15 minutes if needed. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until golden brown and syrup is bubbly. Dana checked to see how the baking was progressing after 30 minutes, just had to bake a little longer about 7 minutes to get the nice golden color she was looking for. Allow to cool slightly in the Dutch Oven, remove with ovenmits and serve warm or cold. Very Yummy! NOTE: if cooking over a fire pit you can either place the Dutch Oven beside the fire in a smaller pit or on a prepared service. You want to be able to continue to feed your fire so you can have a good supply of red hot coals. Dana said she had heard of people using brickets but unfortunately she has no experience using them. She said she's just a little old fashioned (that's why I love her) but is sure we have some members who could add an additional comment on using the charcoal brickets.

PEACH DUMPLINGS (SUGAR FREE)

Steps:

• 1. Roll each biscuit somewhat flat (not going for prettiness or evenness since we are making dumplings). Slice each rolled biscuit into bite-sized strips. In a dutch oven, combine the peaches, juice, milk, Splenda, and butter.
• 2. Heat over medium heat just to boiling. When the mixture begins to boil, drop the dumplings in one at a time. Let simmer about 15 minutes. If the juice is not thick enough for your taste, mix a small amount of corn starch with cold water and stir in the hot mixture until thickened to suit you.
