Ingredients:
- 1 pound of bread cubes or leftover bread, cut into small pieces
- 2 cups of boiling water
- 1/4 cup of unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons of vegan butter or margarine, melted
- 1/4 cup of flour
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon of dried sage
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350F. Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and bake them for about 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the boiling water and almond milk. Pour over the bread cubes and let sit for about 10 minutes, or until the mixture has been fully absorbed.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, flour, salt, black pepper, thyme, and sage. Mix well to make a thick dough.
- Add the bread and water mixture to the bowl with the dough and mix well with your hands until fully combined. The dough should be moist but not too wet.
- Shape the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball. Flatten them slightly with the palms of your hands.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the dumplings to the water and cook for about 10 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
- Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and serve hot with your favorite vegan gravy or sauce.
