Ahh breakfast, the most important meal of the day! That’s a pretty big title to hold, and not to be taken lightly! Something that important requires a recipe that can live up to such expectations! A recipe that’s SO warm, so delicious and so comforting, it deserves to be crowned the day’s most important meal! Sure there’s eggs and toast, a bowl of cereal..a piece of fruit. But none of that comes close to anything I would deem “The most important meal of the day!” That’s a pretty tall order! 🙂
Well, until now! Just think of these hot, gooey and tender dumplings as French Toast unplugged! With every melt in your mouth bite, you get all of the greatness of French Toast, with over the top, almost too good to be true flavor! These fluffy, yet tender & soft dumplings are seriously one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth! They’re beyond explanation. In a matter of minutes you can be starting your day with a steaming bowl of the best and most unique French Toast breakfast you’ve ever had..Good Morning! 🙂
What you’ll need:
1 can of Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layers Biscuits
1.5 cups Maple Syrup..good quality if possible
1/3 cup Brown Sugar
1 tsp. Nutmeg
1 cup cinnamon Sugar (1 part Sugar to 1/2 part Cinnamon)
A dollop of Mascarpone..optional
Directions:
In a medium sauce pot add the Maple Syrup and the Brown Sugar..bring up to a simmer
Cut each raw biscuit into fourths and roll each section into a ball
Gently add them into the simmering syrup..in small batches, leaving room for them to puff up..they get puffy! 🙂
Cover them and let them simmer until they’ve doubled in size..turning them once, to coat each side of the dumplings evenly in the thick and amazing reduced syrup sauce!
Let them cool
While they’re cooling, mix up the cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg in a bowl..set aside.
Gently toss each dumpling in the Cinnamon/Sugar/Nutmeg mix..for that French Toast crunch!
Pile a few dumplings into your bowl and top them with a scoop of Mascarpone or Sour Cream & a nice drizzle of the reduced Maple Syrup Crack Sauce! 😉
O my!! Take a bite of the most soft, tender and incredible version of French Toast you’ll ever have! ~Enjoy! 🙂

What else could you use in place of Maple my family doesn’t care for it. Does anyone have any othere ideas for this?
Honey would work..with a little water to thin it out. Or Agave as well. 🙂
This recipe needs to be revised! It doesn’t specify how many dumplings in pan at once and for how long to cook. My batch was a huge disaster! 🙁
Waste of a lot of $. Won’t every make again. Huge put of mush.
Oh woah, this is way to sweet and mushy. I tried to revise the recipe and just couldn’t get it to something manageable. The best I came up with was after dipping the balls in to the cin sugar mix I baked it and it make it a little more crunchy but still very very sweet.
These were so delicious. Both gooey and fluffy. My batch came out perfect!
I made it this morning. My mom, daughter, and sister loved them. So did I!
I had to do it a little different because I did not have maple syrup or sugar. I know right, sugar? No sugar. I read the reviews first and these are the adjustments I made:
2 cups for corn syrup (my favorite brand), a little more than 1/3 cup brown sugar, to that I also added a teaspoon of vanilla and about 1/2 tsp of nutmeg. Then I sprinkled them with cinnamon while they were cooling. I mixed 4oz of cream cheese with 2 tbsp butter to put on top! Wow, it was phenomenal!
This dish sounded impossible to make, but it turned out great!
Thanks so much for sharing! I appreciate you.
