Ingredients

• 6 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
• 2 large carrots, sliced
• 2 stalks celery stalks, sliced
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.75 cup almond flour
• 0.25 cup coconut flour
• 2 large eggs
• 0.25 cup coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon baking powder (gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Step 2

Add carrots and celery to the pot and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the shredded chicken, salt, pepper, and thyme, and let it simmer while you prepare the dumplings.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, sea salt, and parsley. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and coconut milk.

Step 5

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If the mixture is too dry, add a little more coconut milk until a soft dough forms.

Step 6

Using your hands, form the dough into small dumplings, approximately 1-inch in diameter.

Step 7

Gently add the dumplings into the simmering soup. Cover the pot and let cook for about 15 minutes. The dumplings should float to the top and be cooked through.

Step 8

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

Garnish with additional fresh parsley before serving, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your comforting Paleo dumpling soup.
