Mom's Simple Dumplings

Servings:

This is my mom's easy recipe for soft and fluffy dumplings to drop into hot stew. As a kid I begged my mom to make chicken and dumplings all the time. Now I swear by this simple recipe too!

Instructions

  1. 1 Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Cut in shortening with a knife or pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir milk into flour mixture until moistened. Dough will be pretty lumpy, but be sure to not over mix it!
  2. 2 Drop dough by large spoonfuls onto any simmering 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.
