I would rather my baked apples be enclosed in a pastry (apple dumpling),
with a "hint" of cinnamon, not a *lot*. Then serve this thing with a
custard sauce, and maybe a drizzle of chocolate.

When my mom made apple dumplings, she would reserve the peelings, then boil
them with water, sugar, a cinnamon stick, and a wedge of lemon, to form a
thin syrup. This was poured around the the dumplings when they were about
half baked. The tickened syrup was rosy colored and poured over the
dumplings just before serving. A fond a delicious memory.
