How to Make Baked Golden Syrup Dumplings
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg.
- Gradually add 3/4 cup milk to the beaten egg, whisking until combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a soft, sticky dough forms. Add more milk, a tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup golden syrup, 1/4 cup water, and 1 tablespoon butter. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
- Grease a pie dish or oven-safe dish.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough into the prepared dish.
- Pour the golden syrup mixture evenly over the dumplings.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm with your favorite custard, cream, or ice cream.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
