🛒 Ingredients:
- 🍞 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 🥄 4 tsp baking powder
- 🧂 1/2 tsp salt
- 🥛 3/4 cup milk
- 🧈 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 🥚 1 large egg
🔥 Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and egg until smooth.
2️⃣ Mix the Dough:
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the dumplings light and airy.
3️⃣ Drop Dumplings into Broth:
- Bring your chicken and broth to a gentle simmer.
- Using a spoon, drop small spoonfuls of the dough directly into the simmering broth.
4️⃣ Cook the Dumplings:
- Cover the pot with a lid and let the dumplings cook for 12-15 minutes. Do not lift the lid during cooking, as the steam is essential for fluffy dumplings.
