Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Butter
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 6 cups Chicken broth
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Allow it to cool slightly.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the cooled melted butter and heavy cream, mixing until smooth.
Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until a thick batter forms.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, fresh chopped parsley, and xanthan gum to help bind the mixture.
Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to thicken, making it easier to form into balls.
Meanwhile, in a large pot, bring chicken broth to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Using a spoon or your hands, form dough into small balls, approximately 1.5 inches in diameter.
Gently drop dumplings into the simmering broth, ensuring they're all submerged.
Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they have expanded and are cooked through.
Serve the dumplings hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired. These dumplings can be served on their own or alongside your favorite low-carb main dish.
