Hi again, Amanda from ‘Simple home cook’ here. Maple syrup dumplings is a recipe found in my cookbook but I want to share it with you today as it is a perfect winter dessert.
It is a family favourite that we just don’t make often enough in my opinion. My kids could eat this every night but moderation is the key! It is such a simple dessert and uses minimal ingredients and is a great recipe to add to your list.
Enjoy,
Amanda (Simple home cook)
Maple Syrup Dumplings
Dough
- 1 cup self raising flour
- 40g butter, chilled
- 2 eggs
Syrup
- 1 ¾ cups water
- ¼ cup maple syrup or golden syrup
- 40g butter
- ½ cup brown sugar
Dough
- Sift flour into a large bowl. Rub butter into flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. You can use a food processor or Thermomix to speed up the process.
- Beat eggs with a fork and add to the mixture. Stir to form a dough. Set aside.
Syrup
- In a large pot, combine syrup ingredients & stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
- Reduce to low heat. Once simmering, roll dough into small balls (approx. 2 to 3cm) & drop them into the simmering mixture. Simmer for 25 mins with the lid on. Dumplings should be puffed & golden when cooked.
- Eat immediately or place in microwave safe bowl, cover & refrigerate until required.
- Reheat in microwave and serve with custard… YUM!!
