How to Make Souskluitjies Dumplings In Cinnamon Syrup
- Whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder in a large bowl.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold, cubed unsalted margarine or butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1/2 cup milk. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach the right consistency.
- Preheat oven to 120°C (250°F).
- In a large (4-liter) pot, bring 4 cups of water and 2 tablespoons of butter to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
- Gently drop rounded tablespoons of dough into the boiling water. Do not overcrowd the pot.
- Immediately cover the pot and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 15 minutes without lifting the lid.
- Carefully remove the cooked dumplings using a slotted spoon and place them in a lidded oven-safe dish.
- Liberally sprinkle the dumplings with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- In the same pot, add the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture to the water and bring to a simmer. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
- Pour the warm cinnamon syrup evenly over the dumplings in the oven-safe dish. Cover the dish and bake in the preheated oven for at least 30 minutes, or until heated through and the syrup has thickened slightly.
