Instructions
  1. Heat milk in a small bowl in a microwave . The temperature needs to be comfortable to the touch . Add sugar, dissolve and sprinkle yeast on top. Stir yeast in the milk and let rest.
  2. Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl or dough mixer, along with the yeast mixture. Mix well. If the dough is too sticky add more flour.
  3. Place dough in a bowl (coat it with nonstick spray). Cover the dough, and let rest for 30 minutes in a warm place.
  4. Dumplings are filled with fruit of your choice (strawberries, blueberries, apricots, plums, blackberries or even bananas). Fresh fruit is always better, but you may also use frozen.Wash fresh fruit in a strainer and let dry on a paper towel.
  5. When the dough rested long enough, place it on a clean, flat surface.
  6. Shape the dough with a kneading motion into a smooth ball. Roll the ball into a long thick coil, and cut 1 inch thick slices with a knife. Shape each piece into a ball and then flatten them up.
  7. Place the dough into your palm and position the fruit in the middle. Wrap the edges of the dough around the fruit, and pinch tightly together, till no fruit is showing, and the dough is tightly sealed. Repeat with each piece.
  8. Set the finished dumplings sealed side down on a floured surface to rest for 15-20 minutes. Cover with cloth.
  9. To cook the dumplings, you are going to need a large pot with lid, filled half way up with water. Bring it to rolling boil. Place the dumplings one by one into the pot and stir with wooden spoon. The dumplings will get twice as big so don’t put too many of them in.
  10. Cover with a lid and return to full boil. Turn down the heat to medium high and place wooden spoon between the lid and the pot for the steam to escape.
  11. Boil for 4 minutes, uncover the lid, and with a wooden spoon turn each dumpling over ( tops will be on the bottom). Place lid back on, and continue boiling for four more minutes.
  12. When the dumplings are ready to be taken out, you have to work quickly. Prepare large bowl, curved spatula, and two forks, right next to your pot.
  13. Take one dumpling at a time out, and quickly place forks opposite from each other on the top of a dumpling and make a little rip in the dumpling for the steam to escape. If the steam is not let out, the dumpling will lose its fluffiness. Speed is very important here. Serve hot.
  14. To serve the dumpling, place desired amount of dumplings on a plate sprinkle with powder sugar, favorite yogurt or home made Tvaroh (Czech sour cheese) and drizzle with melted butter.
