Number Of Ingredients 9

2-3 medium potatoes
1/4 cup milk
1 large egg
2-3 cups flour
6-10 small to medium fresh peaches
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 cup melted butter
1/4 cup bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Peel, cut, boil and mash potatoes with a small amount of milk.
  • Add egg and mix well.
  • Add flour to potatoes until mixture becomes firm enough for rolling. Amount of flour needed will vary due to moisture in potatoes.
  • Turn dough out on floured rolling surface and roll to about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Cut dough into squares large enough to envelop one whole peach.
  • Wash peaches and remove stone from each by splitting peach in half (do not peel or cook peaches).
  • Mix cinnamon and sugar. Put 1 tablespoon of sugar mixture in the center of peach, put both sides of peach together and wrap with potato dough, making sure all seams are sealed tight.
  • Drop dumpling into about 4 qts of boiling salted water. Boil until dumplings begin to float, cook time will vary. Carefully remove dumplings so they do not break open.
  • Drizzle with melted butter to keep from sticking. Serve with butter mixed with bread crumbs and top with a sprinkling of the sugar mixture again.
