Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 medium carrots, diced
• 3 medium celery stalks, diced
• 4 large garlic cloves, minced
• 1 large potato, peeled and diced
• 1 medium zucchini, diced
• 6 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 cup all-purpose flour (for dumplings)
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for dumplings, melted)
• 0.25 teaspoons salt (for dumplings)
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for dumplings, optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large soup pot, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter melts.

Step 2

Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced potato and zucchini, and stir well.

Step 5

Sprinkle in the all-purpose flour, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes, to coat the vegetables.

Step 6

Pour in the vegetable broth, stirring to combine, and bring to a gentle boil.

Step 7

Add the dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir well, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 8

While the soup simmers, prepare the dumplings. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk, melted butter, and parsley (if using), and stir until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 9

Gently drop spoonfuls of dumpling dough (about 1 tablespoon each) into the simmering soup. Make sure they are evenly spaced apart.

Step 10

Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and let the dumplings cook for 15 minutes. The dumplings will cook in the broth and absorb its flavors.

Step 11

Stir in the heavy cream to the soup base, making sure not to disturb the dumplings. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

Step 12

Carefully ladle the soup and dumplings into serving bowls.

Step 13

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Step 14

Serve hot and enjoy your thick, creamy upside-down veggie and dumpling soup super!
