Ingredients
  

4 cups fresh broccoli florets

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup heavy cream

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 teaspoon mustard powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup butter, melted

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

    Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.

      Stir in the broccoli florets and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.

        Use a blender or immersion blender to puree half of the soup for a creamy texture while keeping some chunks of broccoli intact. Return the pureed soup to the pot.

          Stir in the heavy cream, shredded cheddar cheese, mustard powder, salt, and pepper. Cook over low heat until the cheese is melted and the soup is heated through, about 5 minutes.

            In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, milk, and melted butter until a smooth dough forms.

              Bring the soup back to a gentle simmer. Using a spoon, scoop small dumplings of the dough and drop them into the simmering soup.

                Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for 10 minutes without lifting the lid to ensure they steam properly.

                  Once the dumplings are fluffy and cooked through, remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

                    Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
