Ingredients for 4 people
2 pounds potatoes (preferably a starchy variety)
2 cups flour
3 eggs
7 ounces (1 ¾ sticks) butter
½ cup breadcrumbs
salt
½ cup sugar
ground cinnamon to taste
16 apricots pitted
Ingredients


Preparation 30 minutes preparation + 5 minutes cooking

Boil the potatoes, then peel and force through a potato ricer. Spread onto a pastry board and let cool.

Add the sifted flour, eggs, one tablespoon of butter and a pinch of salt. Knead together.

Shape the dough into a roll and divide into pieces about 6 inches long. Press each piece of dough into a large enough square to wrap around an apricot.

With lightly floured hands, wrap the apricot (pitted and pressed closed) with the dough and form a ball. Drop the “dumplings” into a large pot of boiling salted water. Boil until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.

In a separate pan, melt the remaining butter. When it begins to brown, stir in the breadcrumbs. After a minute or two, add the dumplings.

Turn with a wooden spoon in the butter to coat evenly. Dust with sugar and cinnamon, and serve hot.
