Cut the stale bread into small cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and sautΓ© the finely chopped onion until it is soft and translucent.
Add the sautΓ©ed onion to the bowl with bread cubes.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes, add freshly chopped parsley, and mix thoroughly. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the liquid.
Add the flour to the bread mixture and gently combine until you achieve a dough that holds together. If the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add a little more almond milk; if itβs too wet, sprinkle in a touch more flour.
With wet hands, form the bread mixture into roughly 8 even-sized dumplings.
Bring the water to a gentle simmer in a large pot.
Carefully add the dumplings to the simmering water, ensuring they do not overcrowd, and let them cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are firm when touched.
Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and drain any excess water.
Serve hot with your choice of gravy or as a side dish to complement your main meal.
