Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 1.5 cups Pure maple syrup
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
In a medium saucepan, combine the maple syrup, water, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough into the simmering maple syrup mixture, ensuring the dumplings have enough space to expand.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer the dumplings for 10–12 minutes, or until they are puffed up and cooked through. Avoid lifting the lid during cooking to ensure the dumplings steam properly.
Once cooked, carefully spoon the dumplings and the maple syrup sauce into serving bowls.
Serve warm, optionally garnished with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of chopped nuts for added texture.
