STEAMED APPLE DUMPLINGS. Make the crust as for biscuit, cut off enough for one dumpling and fill it with nice, tart, sliced apples; pinch well and shape in- to a round ball, and steam three-fourths of an hour over a kettle N/ of water. They are much nicer steamed than boiled. Serve with sugar and cream. Or you can bake them till they are crust- ed over, and pour over them a sauce made as follows: One pint of boiling water, one cup of sugar, piece of butter the size of an egg
