Into cooker initially:
- 1 x 450g (3 cups mixed frozen berries)
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 tspn vanilla
- 1 tbsp maple
Dumplings mixture:
- 1 1/2 cups spelt flour
- 2 tspn baking powder
- 50 g butter (finely diced)
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/3 cup golden syrup
- 2 tspn vanilla
To serve :
- Ice cream (whipped cream or a nice thick yoghurt.)
Instructions
- STEP 1. Turn your slow cooker on high and set the timer to 2.5 hours.
- STEP 2. Pour the frozen berries, maple, vanilla and boiling water into the cooker, stir and pop the lid on.
- STEP 3. Now get going on making the dumplings mixture. In a bowl, mix the flour and baking powder and add the butter. Using your hands, squeeze the butter into the flour like you would when making a scone. Then, make a well and pour in the milk and golden syrup.
- STEP 4. Mix the syrup, vanilla and milk in and then roll into small balls; I did 8, and each was about 2 tbsp.
- STEP 5. Now put the dumplings on top of your berry mixture, pop a tea towel under the cooker lid and leave it to cook. Do your best not to look at them, even when the smell is so much!
- STEP 6. When done, the dumplings will be golden and smell delicious. Gobble them up with ice cream, whipped cream or a nice thick yoghurt.
