I make these in an electric frypan. Try topping them off with vanilla ice cream, or even whipped cream while they are still hot. Awesome!

Tips

Use fresh or frozen elderberries for the best flavor.
If you're using fresh elderberries, be sure to wash them thoroughly and remove any stems.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the dumplings tough.
Drop the dumplings into the boiling water gently so they don't break apart.
Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through. They should be light and fluffy on the inside and slightly golden brown on the outside.
Serve the dumplings warm with your favorite topping.
