GF Spaetzle

My husband and I wanted to try making spaetzle again. The first time didn't turn out as we expected. We tried a new recipe using completely different flour. This turned out fantastic! I cannot wait to make this again and again.

Ingredients

3 Cups of Bob's Red Mill Fava Bean Flour
2 Large eggs
Milk, about 1 cup  (I used unsweetened coconut milk)
2 Tbsp of butter (I used earth balance dairy free butter)
Parsley, dried

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of water to boil and add a little salt
2. In a large bowl, add the flour and create a little well in the middle, then add the eggs
3. Add the milk, ½ cup at a time. Stir and keep adding the milk in until consistency is thick, but a little liquid. It should resemble a thick pancake batter
4. When dough is completely mixed, grab a handful of the dough, and slide it across a large-holed cheese grater 
5. Once all of the dumplings have been added to water, stir and let boil until they are all floating at the top, about 2-3 minutes
6. Strain water with a colander and let dumplings dry for about 1 minute
7. Heat a heavy pan on the stove and melt 2 tbsp butter in it
8. Add spaetzle to pan and toss in butter until slightly browned, about 5 minutes
9. Add the parsley and serve warm
10. Garnish with whatever you would like
