Ingredients
- 2 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1 1/2 cups flour, sifted
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Directions
Bring a saucepan of salted water it a boil, reduce the heat, and maintain a simmer. In a bowl, stir all the ingredients together. Place a colander over the pan, pour about1/4 of the batter into the colander, and press through the holes with a plastic spatula into the hot water. When the spatzle starts to float to the surface, cover the pan and keep covered until the spatzle appears to swell and is fluffy. Remove the dumplings and repeat the procedure with the remaining batter.

Great base dumpling for a number of uses (even eating a few here and there as they come out of the water!. I've used a number of spaetzel recipes over the years, and most were okay; but I've never found one I think I could settle on regularly. This is the one. They are the perfect balance of fluffy and chewy. Great recipe.

This was a great recipe. I sauteed green onions in brown butter and added a bit of nutmeg. Excellent. New family favorite. One of the best I have ever had...

I have been making traditional Polish dumplings for over 20 years. I tried this recipe for fun, to change up the dumplings in my chicken soup. This recipe is nothing short of amazing! I used an infant spoon and dropped them into the broth by baby spoonfuls. I hate to admit it, but they are better than my recipe. This is my new go-to dumpling recipe.
