DUMPLINGS & FRITTERS
BAKED APPLE DUMPLINGS #2
Pare and halve a dozen good tart apples of medium size. For the crust, take 3 pints of flour, 3/4 of a cup of lard, l teaspoonful baking powder, and 1 teaspoonful of salt. When these ingredients are thoroughly mixed, add sweet milk to make it the consistency of pie crust. Roll out rather thin, cut in squares, place the apples thereon and make the dumpling. Grease a pan well with butter and place the dumplings in. A few bits of butter scattered over the dumplings will improve them. Bake in a moderately hot oven. Serve with sugar and milk.
