Recipe Box, Almond Peach Dumplings
I made this twice in one week…that’s how good and easy it is
During baking, the butter and sugar cause the dough and the fruit to transform into a heavenly dumpling
All you need is a roll of crescent roll dough, 2-3 peaches, almond extract, sugar and butter
Toss your peaches in boiling water for 45-60 seconds to make quick work of removing the peel
It will slide right off
Cut peaches into large sections, about 1/4 of a peach
Separate dough triangles and slather with almond emulsion* or almond extract
*emulsions do not have alcohol and therefore pack a little more flavor since the alcohol in extracts tends to evaporate during cooking
Wrap the peach section in a dough triangle and place in a greased baking dish
Bring water, butter and sugar to a boil and cook for several minutes
Pour over dumplings in baking dish
Sprinkle liberally with sugar and almonds if desired
The sugar forms a sweet crunchy crust after baking
Drizzle pan sauce over the dumplings when serving
