Ingredients
  

For the Dumplings
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
For the Soup
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 lb chicken breast, cooked and shredded
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, celery)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot, heat the chicken broth and add the mixed vegetables.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Stir in the milk and melted butter until a dough forms.
Cooking
  1. Drop spoonfuls of the dough into the boiling broth and reduce heat to a simmer.
  2. Cook for 15-20 minutes until the dumplings are cooked through.
  3. Stir in the shredded chicken and serve hot.

Notes

For fluffier dumplings, don’t overmix the dough. You can store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 3 months.
