Steps:
- In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Work the butter into the dry ingredients with your fingers or a fork until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Add the milk and vanilla, stirring with a wooden spoon until the dough is smooth.
- Place the syrup and water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Using two spoons or a moistened ice cream scoop, shape the dough into about 12 balls; use about 30 ml (2 tablespoons) for each ball. Drop the balls one by one into the boiling syrup mixture.
- Cover, reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. Serve with the hot syrup and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Note: The butter coats the flour, inhibiting gluten formation and giving the dumplings a crumbly texture. A similar effect happens with scones.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer sausage to a bowl lined with paper towels to drain some of the grease.
- Beat eggs, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
- Spray another large skillet with cooking spray; warm over medium-high heat. Pour eggs into the skillet; cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes.
- Mix sausage, scrambled eggs, and bacon bits together in a large bowl, crumbling any large chunks. Mix in maple syrup.
- Pour water into a small bowl. Wet edges of the dumpling wrappers using your fingers dipped in the water. Place about 1 teaspoon filling into the middle of each wrapper; fold in 1/2 to make dumpling shapes. Press edges to seal and pinch so they won't open while cooking.
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add dumplings, cover, and steam until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

- Peel and core the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
- Use fresh lemon juice: Lemon juice helps to prevent the apples from browning.
- Don't overcook the apples: They should be tender but still hold their shape.
- Make the dumplings ahead of time: The dumplings can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Simply cover them tightly and refrigerate.
- Serve the dumplings warm: The dumplings are best served warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
