Hungarian Plum Dumplings - With Vegan/Sugar Free Version image

This is a must try! Unfortunately it takes 2 hours to make about 25 dumplings; I don't have that patience so that's the main reason why I avoid making cooked desserts. Also I wanted to take a "group" photo with all the lovely dumplings but it was too late, these little sweets disappeared as soon as they were served! You should definitely try this Hungarian dessert! You'll love it!

Time 2h

Yield 25 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 kg mashed potatoes (use red skin potatoes which have a higher amount of starch so the dough will be stickier)
250 g whole wheat flour (you can also use different flours like soy or almonds or rye flour)
2 eggs (or egg substitutes for vegans, you can also add 1-2 tbsp of dry yeast flakes)
1 tablespoon sunflower oil
25 plums, pitted
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon rum extract
3 -4 tablespoons sucanat
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
150 g breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Start by boiling the unpeeled potatoes in a pot of water (for small potatoes this will take about 10-15 minutes). After they are boiled remove them from the water and let them cool for a couple of minutes then peel and mash them.
  • Put the mashed potatoes in a large bowl and add the beaten eggs (or egg substitutes), oil and flour.
  • Mix all ingredients together until you get a sticky and smooth dough.
  • Mix the cinnamon, vanilla and rum extracts and the sucanat in a small bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of this mixture into the middle of each plum.
  • Heat the oil in a small skillet. Add the bread crumbs and let them fry for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and put them on a large plate.
  • Divide the dough in two. Roll the dough and cut it into dumpling-size portions (ones that appear to be big enough to wrap your plum). Take each portion and form a small ball. Flatten the ball and place the plum into the center, then remake the ball with the plum inside.
  • Tip: You must have flour on your hands all the time so the dough won't stick to your fingers.
  • Boil some water in a large pot. Add a pinch of sea salt.
  • When the water has reached boiling point, place some dumplings inside.
  • Be careful, if the dumplings stick to the bottom of the pot all you need to do is to shake it a little bit. Let them boil for 5 minutes. When ready they will rise from the bottom of the pot.
  • Remove them from the water using a slotted spoon and roll them in the bread crumbs. Serve with honey (or other healthy syrup) on top.

I've made these dumplings several times now and they're always a hit. The dough is light and fluffy, and the plums add a burst of sweetness. I love that I can make them ahead of time and steam them just before serving.
