Czech fruit dumplings [Czech Cuisine S01E05]

Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes.

Drain and let cool slightly, then peel and mash until smooth.

In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, flour, eggs, salt, and sugar to form a dough.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.

Divide the dough into equal portions, about the size of a golf ball.

Flatten each portion and place a piece of fruit in the center.

Wrap the dough around the fruit, sealing it completely.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Drop the dumplings into the boiling water, cooking in batches for 10-12 minutes until they float.

Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and let drain.

In a skillet, melt butter and toast bread crumbs until golden brown.

Roll the dumplings in the toasted bread crumbs to coat.

Sprinkle with cinnamon and powdered sugar before serving.

Serve warm with a drizzle of melted butter or a dollop of sour cream.
