Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use dark maple syrup.
- If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to 1 cup of all-purpose flour.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the dumplings tough.
- Drop the dumplings into the boiling syrup mixture one at a time. If you crowd the pan, the dumplings will not cook evenly.
- Cook the dumplings for 10-12 minutes, or until they are cooked through. To check if a dumpling is cooked, insert a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the dumpling is done.
- Serve the dumplings warm with additional maple syrup.
Conclusion:
Grands Pères au sirop d'érable (Canadian Maple Syrup Dumplings) is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The dumplings are light and fluffy, with a sweet and slightly tangy flavor. The maple syrup sauce is rich and flavorful, and it perfectly complements the dumplings.
