Ingredients:
- 2/3 Cup Orange Juice
- 2/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 1/3 Cup Cranberries
- 1/4 Tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- 1/3 Cup Confectioner's Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Culinary Lavender
- Pillsbury Seamless Dough
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
3. Add cornstarch (mixed with cold water) to the Cranberry mixture, and bring the stove back up to medium heat until the mixture is thick. This should take about 10 minutes.
4. Add a half tablespoon of lavender and mix together on low heat for about 2-4 minutes.
5. Spread out dough on a non-stick cookie sheet. Cut medium sized rectangles in the dough. Put about one small spoonful of the cranberry mixture in the center of your dumpling and pinch the sides together in the center of the dumpling to make a pyramid-like shape.
6. Melt butter in the microwave and brush onto the raw dumpling dough.
7. Place dumplings in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
8. *OPTIONAL: Mix 1/3 cup of confectioner's sugar with 1 tablespoon of milk until there it forms a smooth, thick consistency.
*I highly recommend this step. Although it goes against the "look" of the original dumplings, the sweetness really compliments the bitterness of the cranberries.

9. Drip the glaze (if you decide to make it) onto your dumplings and let cool for at least 2 minutes.
10. Enjoy! These taste greaaattttt while they're warm!!!!
FUS!
I see that your recipe calls for 1 tablespoon of lavender, but only mentions using 1/2 a tablespoon in the instructions. Are you meant to use the other half elsewhere, or is that a typo?
ReplyDeleteThank you, these look delicious! Is it possible that you could use apple juice or apple sauce instead of orange, though, for extra authenticity?
ReplyDeleteSure that would work!
