Perfect to drizzle on apple dumplings, Cider Sauce was well worth the extra effort to prepare fresh before serving. We found we could do some of the prep work up to two days in advance if we reduced the cider mixture and refrigerated it. When we were ready to serve, we returned the mixture to a simmer, then whisked in butter and lemon juice off the heat.
Makes about 1 1/2 cups
To make this sauce up to 2 days in advance, reduce the cider mixture until it measures 1½ cups, then refrigerate. When ready to serve, return mixture to simmer and whisk in butter and lemon juice off heat.
Bring cider, water, sugar, and cinnamon to simmer in saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until thickened and reduced to 1½ cups, about 15 minutes. Off heat, whisk in butter and lemon juice. Drizzle over dumplings to serve.
