Cloud Dumplings
Fast, foolproof, fluffy dumplings to upgrade any soup.
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- ½ cup water
- ½ t salt
- 3 t baking powder
- ¼ cup cold butter, cubed
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Combine the flour, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl. Then add the cubed butter and rub it into the dry ingredients with your fingers until there are no pieces left that are larger than a pea. Stir in the water and egg. Then scoop or shape the dumplings into 1-2" balls. These expand significantly, so keep that in mind when choosing a size. At the end of your soup's cook time, drop the dumplings in. Once in the boiling soup, cover, and allow them to cook for 15-20 minutes, until they all float to the top and are cooked through.
