Maple Dumplings

My Grandma’s sister, Eva Rose, was a fabulous dumpling maker and here is her simple recipe that I’ve used with maple syrup to celebrate Spring.

Dumpling ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp melted butter, cooled
  • ¼ cup whole milk

Maple syrup poaching liquid ingredients:

  • 2 cups maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup water

Dumpling directions:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
  2. Add egg, butter and milk to the flour mixture and mix to incorporate. Do not overmix. Dumpling batter will be lumpy.
  3. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Maple syrup dumpling directions:

  1. In a medium saucepan, bring the maple syrup and water to a boil over high heat. Turn heat down to low.
  2. Drop dumpling batter by the tablespoonful into the hot liquid. Cover pan with a lid and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes.
  3. Serve hot with vanilla ice cream.

Makes 4 servings.

Note: These dumplings are delicious with berries instead of the maple syrup poaching liquid.
