In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Whisk them together until well mixed.

Add your bubbly sourdough starter to the dry mixture. Using a spatula, mix until combined. The dough will be quite thick.

Slowly add water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough is soft but not overly sticky. Aim for a consistency that easily holds together.

Using your hands, shape the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball. If the dough is too sticky, you can lightly flour your hands.

Bring your favorite broth to a gentle simmer in a large pot.

Carefully drop the dumplings into the simmering broth. Cover the pot and let them cook for about 10-15 minutes. They’re done when they float to the surface and are cooked through.

Ladle the broth and dumplings into bowls. Add your favorite toppings, like fresh herbs or yogurt, and enjoy!
