Ingredients:
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
11 peaches (or 15 plums), chopped
Powdered sugar
Cottage cheese
Directions:
Boil milk, butter, and salt in a saucepan while stirring continuously. Remove from heat.
Whisk egg into the milk mixture, gradually adding half of the flour (one cup). Mix well.
On a flat surface sprinkled with the remaining flour, knead the dough into a large ball. Wrap pieces of the dough around the chopped fruit, pinching the dumplings at the edges. Place dumplings in boiling water. When they begin to rise to the surface, boil for 20 minutes (10 minutes for plum dumplings).
Serve with powdered sugar and cottage cheese.
Servings: Serves four to six.
