Ingredients
  

For the Dumplings
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cup milk
  • 0.25 cup butter, melted
For the Bake
  • 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 2 cans cream of mushroom soup

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • 9x13 inch baking dish

Method
 

Prepare the Dumplings
  1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Then, stir in milk and melted butter until just combined to form a soft dough.
  2. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough onto the hot chicken mixture in the baking dish.
Assemble the Bake
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a 9x13 inch baking dish, combine the shredded chicken and cream of mushroom soup.
  2. Ensure the chicken and soup are well mixed and spread evenly in the baking dish.
Bake and Serve
  1. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and cooked through, and the bake is bubbling.
  2. Let the dumpling bake cool for a few minutes before serving hot.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding some sautéed vegetables like peas and carrots to the chicken mixture before baking. You can also sprinkle some cheese over the dumplings during the last 10 minutes of baking for a cheesy crust.
