Combine Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, sift together the flour, salt, pepper (if using), and baking powder.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the egg with melted butter.
Combine Wet and Dry: Add the egg and butter mixture to the dry ingredients, along with enough milk to make a semi-stiff batter (don’t overmix).
Cook the Dumplings: Drop spoonfuls of batter into the simmering broth. Cover the pot and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
