GLUTEN-FREE CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS-1
CHICKEN AND DUMPLING SOUP GLUTEN-FREE DAIRY-FREE-2

Chicken with dumplings is a classic Southern recipe, however, dumplings are generally thought to have originated in Germany. Dumplings are traditionally made from flour, milk, butter, and sometimes eggs, and then boiled in broth or water. These gluten-free dumplings are simmered for a few minutes in a pot of homemade chicken soup for a nourishing family meal! I prefer to use sprouted garbanzo bean flour because it is more mild-flavored and is more digestible compared to the regular non-sprouted version of the flour. You can order it here.
