Golden Syrup Dumplings
Components:
Regarding the Dumplings:
- One cup of flour for all purposes
- Two teaspoons of baking powder
- One-fourth teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup softened unsalted butter
- half a cup of milk
- 1/4 cup sugar (more sugar optional for sweetness)
Regarding the Syrup:
- 1 cup treacle or golden syrup
- one cup of water
- half a cup of sugar
- One tsp of optional vanilla extract
Guidelines:
Get the syrup ready.
- The sugar, water, vanilla extract (if used), and golden syrup should all be combined in a medium pot. Over medium heat, bring to a slow boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. To keep it warm, turn down the heat to low.
Prepare the Batter for Dumplings:
- Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing dish.
- Mix in the milk and softened butter until well mixed. Take care not to overmix; the dough should be sticky.
Put down the dumplings:
- Spoon large portions of the dumpling batter into the simmering syrup using a spoon. Allow space between them, as they will swell during cooking.
Prepare the dumplings:
- Place a lid on the saucepan and boil the dumplings for 15 to 20 minutes. While cooking, keep the lid on since the steam is necessary for the food to rise.
Serve:
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the cooked dumplings. Drizzle with the saucepan’s syrup and serve warm.
Decorative Accents Not Required:
- For an added pleasure, serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
