Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion, diced
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 medium Carrots, diced
• 2 Celery stalks, diced
• 8 cups Chicken broth
• 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
• 2 Bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Chives, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 2

Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add shredded chicken, bay leaves, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 20 minutes.

Step 3

While the soup is simmering, prepare the dumplings. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder.

Step 4

In another bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the shredded mozzarella cheese and melted butter until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until a dough forms. Stir in the chopped chives.

Step 6

Shape the dough into small balls using hands or a spoon, approximately 1 inch in diameter, yielding about 12 to 15 dumplings.

Step 7

Gently drop the dumplings into the simmering soup. Cover the pot and let them cook for 10 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and slightly firm.

Step 8

Remove bay leaves from soup before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped chives if desired.
