Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick salted butter, sliced
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 cup chopped mushrooms
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • Fresh thyme for garnish
  • Flaky salt for garnish
  • Black pepper for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a Dutch oven set over medium heat, melt the butter with the onions and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the 1/3 cup flour. Mix in the thyme, sage, cayenne, carrots, celery, and mushrooms. Toss to coat. Pour over 6 cups of vegetable broth and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Cover and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
  3. To make the dumplings, in a separate bowl, stir together 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon dried sage, and season with 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add 1 cup milk. Mix until just combined.
  4. Bring the soup to a gentle boil. Drop a heaping tablespoon of the dough into the soup, adding about 6 dumplings at a time. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, until the dumplings are cooked through and puffy.
  5. If desired, add 2 tablespoons salted butter to a small skillet set over medium-high heat and allow the butter to brown. Divide the soup and dumplings between bowls. Serve topped with brown butter, fresh thyme, flaky salt, and black pepper. Enjoy!
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy this cozy meal!

Notes

- For extra flavor, use a high-quality vegetable broth or chicken broth.
- Don't overmix the dumpling dough; slight lumps are fine and will result in tender dumplings.
- Ensure the soup is at a gentle boil when dropping dumplings to cook them evenly.
- This soup stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of broth or milk if it's too thick.
