The most magnificent summer treat in a pan - perfect for potlucks or get-togethers!
This week's Sunday Supper event is
SUMMER'S BEST POTLUCK DISHES and is hosted by T.R. of
Gluten Free Crumbly. I made these dumplings last summer for a family grill out (which is like feeding a
small army anyways) and thought it would be the perfect recipe to share
with y'all today for the summer potluck event.
So it literally could not be written in the stars any clearer than this recipe that Ree Drummond and I should be best friends. I love all of her recipes and she never fails me. However, I decided to switch up her apple dumplings with peaches - and then later noticed the side note where she suggests peach, pear or apricots would work well. I am the worst at actually reading through my cookbooks.
Anyways, I was going through my blog feed and saw
Peach Dumplings pop up and noticed they were from Ree and decided it's totally fate that she would post her adaptation so close to when I had planned on posting the adaptation of her original recipe. However, in her adaptation, she used frozen peaches and Sprite, whereas I used fresh peaches and Mountain Dew. I'm definitely taking a page from her book (hah, puns!) and using frozen peaches next time because the fresh peaches were a pain in the backside to deal with.
Ree suggested serving it up with vanilla or cinnamon ice cream. We did cinnamon bun ice cream and I have to say - GO THAT ROUTE!! The whole thing is heaven in your mouth. By far, these dumplings are one of my all-time favorite desserts and recipes!
