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:
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add egg, butter and milk to the flour mixture and mix to incorporate. Do not overmix. Dumpling batter will be lumpy.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Maple syrup dumpling directions:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the maple syrup and water to a boil over high heat. Turn heat down to low.
- Drop dumpling batter by the tablespoonful into the hot liquid. Cover pan with a lid and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes.
- Serve hot with vanilla ice cream.
Makes 4 servings.
Note: These dumplings are delicious with berries instead of the maple syrup poaching liquid.
