Grands Peres Au Sirop Derable Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, mix together the brown sugar and water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and stir in 1 tablespoon of butter and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla. Cover while preparing the batter.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, white sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in 1/3 cup of butter by pinching between your fingers, or using a fork until the mixture has lumps no larger than crumbs. Make a well in the center, and pour in the milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla all at once. Stir just until all of the dry mixture is absorbed.
• Return the sugar mixture to a full boil, and drop large spoonfuls of the batter into the syrup. Cover and simmer over medium heat, without removing the lid, for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the largest dumpling comes out clean.

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Slowly add milk into the mixture.
• Boil maple syrup and water in a pot.
• Put the dough into the boiling syrup, one tablespoon at a time (give the dough balls/"grands-peres" time to coagulate before adding more dough into the syrup).
• Cover and let it cook at reduced heat for 10-15 minutes.
• Serve on a plate with ice cream, if desired.
