Recipe Tips

  • You can prepare the dumplings mixture the day before you want to make the dessert. Just make sure you store the mix in the fridge until you need it.
  • Adding a drizzle of cream to the sauce at the end of cooking will make the sauce much creamier.
  • As mentioned above, you can substitute the golden syrup with light treacle or molasses.
  • These can cook on low, but they might not puff up as much and instead be more spread out.
