Mix 3.5 cups of flour, 1 tablespoon of salt, and 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder in a bowl.

In another bowl, whisk together 1.25 cups of cold water and 2 eggs.

Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until well incorporated.

Ensure peaches are dry and at room temperature before using them.

Divide the dough into portions and form dumplings by placing a peach in the center and sealing the dough around it.

Boil the dumplings in a large pot of water for 20 to 30 minutes until tender.

In a skillet, melt butter and add 1-1.5 cups of plain bread crumbs, cooking until golden brown.

Serve the dumplings with the breadcrumb mixture.
