A lot of manufactures went to healthy oils. They don't cook the same or taste the same. Think of food cooked in Lard. Add some butter.

Years ago I bought some apples that were not good eating apples. I cooked them into sauce which came out very juicy. The flavor was the best ever. We used it for ice cream topping etc. I put the sauce into a baking dish and spooned the bisquick dumpling dough in small spoonfuls over the top with cinnamon and nutmeg, baked at 350 until the dumplings were done. We spooned the dumplings and sauce into dessert bowls and served warm with heavy cream. We make this every year after a trip to the apple orchard. I still have not found the original apple that was so horrible tasting. My friend thinks it might have been some kind of crabapple.

It doesn't get any easier than this. The dumplings were soft and tender. I added them to canned soup to spruce it up.

Best, easiest homemade chicken dumpling soup ever! I’m a Trader Joe’s shopper so I used TJs baking mix and mirepoix (fresh chopped celery, onions and carrots.) And a fabulous $4.99 rotisserie chicken from Costco. Eat a meal of the chicken, there’s so much. Then take the rest of the meat off the bones, put bones, skin, drippings, water to cover, 2 bay leaves and 5 cloves, some chicken broth starter, salt and pepper. Simmer it while you’re home, it smells so heavenly. “Sweat” the veggies in a little butter and set them aside. Drain the broth through a colander, put chicken, veggies and broth back in the pan, bring to a boil and add your dumplings. I used the suggestion of another reviewer and added a bit of sage, rosemary and thyme that I ground in my mortar and pestle. Have a sick friend? Family coming in for the weekend? Make the soup except for the dumplings, make them when you’re ready to eat. Easy peasy and delicious.

wonderful! came out perfect! I had never made dumplings before and didn't realize how much they expand when you put them in the soup - doubled or tripled in size (for other newbies). I followed the directions but was in a hurry and cut both of the 10-minute periods to probably 5 minutes but they still came out perfect, as far as anyone could tell. thanks so much for sharing such an easy recipe!
