In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, nutmeg and salt. Then mix in the melted butter, maple syrup and vegan milk until well incorporated. The dough will be on the dry side, like biscuit dough. Set aside while you start your gravy.
Gravy Sauce
-
In a large pot (dutch oven or stock pot), heat oil over medium heat. When hot, add in celery, onions, and carrots. Allow to cook for 3-5 minutes or until vegetables have begun softening. Add in garlic and all the spices and stir together.
-
Add in flour and stir together. Then immediately add vegetable stock, coconut milk, peas, chickpeas, and vegan better than bouillon. Turn down to simmer and allow to cook for 10 minutes.
-
Using a spoon or cookie dough scoop, drop scoops of the dough into the gently simmering soup. Carefully spoon the liquid mixture over the dumplings to ensure even cooking. Cover pot with a lid and all to cook for 10 more minutes.
