Buttermilk Dumplings

"I read the reviews so I hunted down the recipe again and it read 1 2/3-2 cups all purpose flour. Sorry for the misprint it should be good to go now. This is a great dumpling recipe."

  1. Was expecting to no rise well due to the one review, but to my surprise within just a few moments of dropping the dough in did I see a size difference, I placed rounded teaspoon sized portions in and the tripled in size.. I did have to add a half cup or more worth of flour to get "drop biscuit" consistency but hands down I am impressed... made turkey and dumplings with left over Thanksgiving turkey and its a crowd pleaser.. pictures doesn't do it justice.. I bookmarked this recipe for use later on

  2. I made this one despite the negative comment about them not rising because it didn't have any additional fat in it, like shortening. To make it healthier, I left out the salt and used half all purpose flour and half whole wheat flour. After adding one cup of flour, the dough was way too moist. I probably added close to another cup of flour before the consistancy was what I expected. This may have been why they didn't rise for the other person. I checked them after about 10 minutes and to my surprise they had risen a lot. After 15 I wasn't sure they were done, so I cooked them about 20 minutes. I also had put 2 tablespoons of milled flax seed in to make them even healthier. The flax seed and whole wheat flour was plenty of flavor even without the salt.
     
  3. Sorry, made this exactly as directed. The only reason I gave it one-star was the easy directions. They were just a blob never raised, were just a big fat blob.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a housewife, I love to cook and experiment with different spices and flavors, there are not many recipe ideas I will not try. EXCEPT! anything that is extremely HOT and SPICY, I have a allot of family members living here and most of us spend the holidays together.We all Love to eat and look forward to the different AND the traditional recipes on the Holidays. My pet peeve...HUM it makes me crazy when someone cooks and leaves the mess pile up, It's easier to clean as you go, that way when the food is done you can actually sit down and enjoy it. I am very passionate about and being apart of the fight to prevent animal cruelty, and helping to educate people about what happens to Children or Pets left in vehicles on very hot or very cold days, also Pets left in extreme elements outside without the proper necessities. I believe that anyone that purposely harms or torturers a child or a animal is a Coward!
