Marillenknödel
Austria · Europe
A whole apricot is enclosed in dough, often with a sugar cube replacing its stone. The dumplings are cooked in salted water and finished with breadcrumbs toasted in butter and sugar. Cinnamon and a dusting of icing sugar may be added. They can be served as a sweet main course or dessert.[1]
The dough can be made with quark, flour, butter and egg, or with cooked potatoes. The quark version surrounds the fruit with a soft cheese dough; the potato version uses riced potatoes mixed with flour, cream, butter and egg. Both keep the apricot whole inside the dumpling.[1][2]
