   Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough into individual biscuits.

   حوالي 1 د

3. 3

   On a lightly floured surface, roll or press each biscuit into a thin round, large enough to fully enclose an apple.

   حوالي 7 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: If the dough is sticky, dust your hands and the rolling pin with a little flour.

4. 4

   Wrap one dough round around each peeled and cored apple, pinching the seams firmly to seal.

5. 5

   Place the wrapped apples seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.

   حوالي 1 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Leave a little space between each dumpling to allow the syrup to bubble up around them.

6. 6

   In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

   حوالي 2 د

7. 7

   Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until combined.

   حوالي 1 د

8. 8

   Slowly pour in the lemon-lime soda and optional vanilla extract, then return to the heat and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

   حوالي 3 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Pour the soda in slowly as it will foam up when it hits the hot butter mixture.

9. 9

   Carefully pour the hot syrup mixture over and around the dumplings in the baking dish.

   حوالي 1 د

10. 10

    Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the dough is deep golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a knife.

    حوالي 35 د

    ملاحظة الطاهي: The syrup will reduce and thicken as it bakes.

11. 11

    Let the dumplings cool in the dish for at least 10 minutes before serving.

    حوالي 10 د

    ملاحظة الطاهي: This allows the sauce to thicken into a lovely syrup.

12. 12

    Serve warm, spooning extra syrup from the pan over each dumpling.

    ملاحظة الطاهي: These are delicious on their own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
