How to Make Fluffy Dumplings

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat 1 large egg until light and fluffy. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of milk.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Bring 4 cups of vegetable broth or your favorite soup/stew to a gentle boil in a large pot.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter onto the gently boiling liquid (about 1 tablespoon per dumpling).
  7. Cover the pot tightly and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and fluffy.
  8. Optional: For Parsley Chili Fluffy Dumplings, stir in 1 teaspoon chili powder and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley into the batter before dropping into the boiling liquid.
  9. Serve immediately with your favorite soup or stew.
