How to Make Pumpkin Dumplings
- Bring a large pot (at least 6 quarts) of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 1 teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup pumpkin puree, 1 large egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Whisk the pumpkin mixture until thoroughly combined and smooth.
- Gradually add 2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to achieve desired consistency.
- Fill a 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon with boiling water before each scoop of dough to prevent sticking.
- Scoop a generous 1/2 teaspoon of dough into the boiling water. Repeat until all the dough is used, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. You can work in batches if necessary.
- Boil the dumplings for approximately 10 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through.
- Remove the dumplings using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a colander to drain.
- While the dumplings cook, melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the drained dumplings to the skillet and sauté until lightly browned and crispy, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Transfer the dumplings to a serving dish and sprinkle generously with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
