These fluffy, pillowy dumplings come together in just 10 minutes of prep time using simple pantry staples like all-purpose flour, baking powder, and milk, making them both budget-friendly and beginner-friendly. Simmered directly in a savory chicken or vegetable broth enhanced with garlic powder, dried parsley, and a touch of black pepper, these dumplings soak up all the aromatic flavors, delivering a cozy, rustic dish that's ready in just 30 minutes. Serve these soul-warming dumplings with a ladle of broth for a delightful one-pot meal thatβs as comforting as it is convenient.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Add the whole milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients and stir until a sticky dough forms. Do not overmix.
In a large pot, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Season the broth with garlic powder, dried parsley, and black pepper for added flavor.
Using a spoon, drop small dollops (about 1 tablespoon each) of the dough directly into the boiling broth. Donβt worry about making them perfectly round β the rustic look adds charm!
Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid. Let the dumplings simmer gently for 12-15 minutes, or until they are fully cooked and fluffy inside.
Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to serve the dumplings along with some broth. Enjoy your lazy dumplings warm and fresh!
