Plum Jam Dumplings

Tender potato-flour dumplings stuffed with jammy plums, tossed in cinnamon sugar and browned butter. A sweet Austrian comfort bite that tastes way fancier than the 20 minutes it takes.

Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix flour, potato starch, salt, and 1/2 cup cold water in a bowl until a soft, sticky dough forms.

  2. Step 2

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

  3. Step 3

    Working with wet hands, scoop a spoonful of dough, place a plum in the center, wrap dough around it, and seal gently into a ball. Repeat with remaining dough and plums.

  4. Step 4

    Drop dumplings into boiling water. They'll sink, then float to the surface after 2-3 minutes. Simmer 1 more minute, then remove with a slotted spoon.

  5. Step 5

    Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it foams and turns golden brown, ~2 minutes. Add dumplings and roll gently to coat.

  6. Step 6

    Mix cinnamon and sugar, sprinkle over dumplings, toss gently. Serve warm.
