Condensed milk dumplings FAQ:
Cook the dumplings for about 10-15 minutes after adding them to the gently bubbling syrup. They should puff up and become light and fluffy during this time.
The dumplings are done when they have puffed up significantly and have a light, fluffy texture. You can cut one open to check for doneness; it should not be doughy in the center.
Yes, you can use all-purpose flour instead of self-raising flour, but you'll need to add extra baking powder. Any light syrup can replace maple syrup, and you can use any milk variety in place of 1% fat milk.
Store leftover dumplings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. They can be reheated gently in the microwave or on the stove with a splash of milk to restore moisture.
While dumplings can be frozen, it's best to freeze them before cooking. Roll them into balls, freeze on a baking sheet, then transfer to a container. You can cook them straight from frozen, adding a couple of extra minutes to the cooking time.
Tips:
- Ensure your butter is cold and cut into small cubes before mixing it with the flour for a better texture.
- Do not over-mix the dough; it should come together just enough to form a ball.
- For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the flour mixture.
- Use a spoon to place the dough into the boiling mixture to keep the dumplings uniform in size.
- Keep an eye on the dumplings while they cook to make sure they don't overcook and become too dense.
- Serve the dumplings warm and consider drizzling with a bit of extra maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar for added sweetness.
