Low Carb Carbalose Flour Dumplings. I have had a lot of people over the years who have either Googled or emailed me about low carb carbalose flour dumplings and I really didn’t have a recipe per se except for the dumplings in my Creamy Chicken & Dumplings so I thought I would do a plain version of them just in case you don’t want the herbs/spices. My personal opinion is that they go quite well with a gravy like Basic Cream Gravy or the Keto Primal Gravy.
Sautéed in a bit of butter? With gravy? Yep, they make a great side dish to many meals and this is a really easy way to get dumplings for anything you might want them for. I have a sneaking suspicion these are going to be a big hit and I believe, if you don’t tell anyone, they’ll not know the difference so…Don’t tell. No, these are NOT, I repeat NOT, made with Carbquik.

- 1 C Carbalose Flour***
- ½ t Baking Powder
- ¼ t Pepper
- ⅛ t Guar Gum
- ⅛ t Grated Nutmeg
- 2 Eggs
- ⅓ C Heavy Cream
- ⅓ C Hot Water
- 1-1½ t Chicken Base*** (This Is Your Salt).
- 2 Drops Liquid Sucralose*** (Only If Flour Tastes Bitter To You And WILL NOT make it sweet).
- More Freshly Ground Pepper To Taste
- Beat eggs.
- Mix hot water & Sucralose, add chicken base until dissolved, add to eggs and beat, add heavy cream and mix. Add to dry ingredients and beat until smooth.
- Using a two teaspoon scoop (about the size of a small melon baller #100 size scoop) drop dough into water (don't crowd) and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until they are no longer doughy. They will float almost immediately so that is not any indication of doneness. Also if you make them larger they will also need a longer poaching time.
- Drain and repeat until all dough is used.
- You should get about 32-34 good size dumplings. (About 1-1½” in diameter)
- 8 Servings-4 Dumplings Each
- 87 Calories, 5.5g Protein, 6.3g Fat, 6.1g Carbs, 3.6g Fiber, 2.5g Net Carbs
- You only see 15 dumplings in the picture because I only made a ½ recipe and...I popped one into my mouth before I got it into my soup. Oops.
Will the uncooked dumplings hold up if I make them a day before I use them? Also do you think I could freeze them?
Hi Lily,
Good questions and I think the answer is yes to both although I didn’t freeze mine. If making ahead just keep well covered until ready to use the following day or so.
