Ingredients
- 500 ml Pure maple syrup
- 250 ml Water
- 30 g Unsalted butter
- 250 g All-purpose flour
- 10 g Baking powder
- 25 g Granulated sugar
- 1 g Salt
- 45 g Unsalted butter, cold and diced
- 125 ml Whole milk
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the maple syrup, water, and 30g of butter over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, and allow the butter to melt. Keep the mixture warm while preparing the dumplings.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Step 3
Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut the 45g of cold butter into the flour mixture until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
Gradually add the milk to the dry mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Step 5
Bring the maple syrup mixture back to a gentle simmer. Using a tablespoon or small scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering syrup. Space them slightly apart, as they will expand during cooking.
Step 6
Cover the saucepan tightly with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Allow the dumplings to cook for 12-15 minutes without uncovering the pot, until they are puffed up and cooked through.
Step 7
Using a slotted spoon, gently remove the dumplings and place them on serving plates. Drizzle the warm maple syrup sauce generously over the dumplings.
Step 8
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a sprinkle of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
