Ingredients Moms Simple Dumplings Recipe
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons shortening
- ¾ cup milk
Directions for making Moms Simple Dumplings Recipe
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the shortening with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- Stir the milk into the flour mixture until moistened. Dough will be pretty lumpy, but be sure to not over mix it!
- Drop dough by large spoonfuls onto any boiling stew. The dumplings should rest on top of vegetables and meat; it’s okay if they stick out of the top a bit.
- Cook uncovered for 10 minutes; cover and cook another 10 minutes.
