Ingredients
  

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg slightly beaten
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup milk

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, egg, baking powder, salt, and milk. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes until smooth and elastic. Roll out to ¼-inch thickness and cut into small squares or desired shapes.
  • Drop dumplings into simmering stew or soup, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover the pot and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until dumplings are light and fluffy.
  • Serve hot, ladled over your favorite soup or stew, and enjoy the comforting, satisfying flavor.

Notes

For extra flavor, add herbs like parsley or chives to the dough. These dumplings are versatile and pair well with chicken soup, beef stew, or a creamy casserole.
