Ingredients
Scale
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cans (14.5 oz each) crushed tomatoes
2 cups vegetable broth
1 teaspoon sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1/2 cup milk
Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the diced onion. Sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, sugar, salt, pepper, thyme, and basil. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
While the soup is simmering, mix the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and smoked paprika in a bowl. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk until just combined.
Using a spoon, drop batter in heaping tablespoons into the simmering soup. Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for 10 minutes without lifting the lid.
Once the dumplings are fluffy and cooked through, ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with shredded cheddar cheese.
