Topfenknödel (Curd Dumplings) are a typical Austrian pastry that we love to eat. These dumplings are made of a mixture with curd cheese and rolled in toasted breadcrumbs. We like it best with strawberry sauce. But the dumplings also taste very delicious with plum roaster or apricot roaster!
Read moreThese semolina dumplings are fluffy, soft and sooo delicious! We love these dumplings. Can be served after a soup for lunch, or as dessert in the evening.
Read moreHow nice the strawberry season is! We love the little red fruits! The strawberry fields are full and just waiting to be picked and nibbled.
In Austria, we like to have sweet food for lunch, such as apricot dumplings, potato fingers or apfelschlangerl. The list could go on forever. 🙂
Today we have strawberry dumplings.
Main course or dessert, they are wonderful.
They just taste so delicious! Can’t stop eating!
The dough is simple and fast to do. (No need for it to rest.) Then the strawberries are placed in the middle of the dumplings. Placed in boiling hot water, before being rolled in delicious cinnamon crumbs. Ready to eat!! Give it a try!
Knead flour, curd, egg, egg yolk, salt and sugar to a dough. Form to a roll.
Cut dough in equal pieces, put in a strawberry, close dough and form to a dumpling.
Place dumplings in boiling salted water and simmer for about 10 minutes.
In the meantime roast breadcrumbs in butter, sugar and cinnamon. Stirring constantly.
Remove dumplings from the water, drain and roll dumplings in bread crumbs.
You can also freeze the strawberry dumplings.
Place the raw dumplings (without boilling) on a plate in the freezer. When frozen, put in a freezer bag to store.
For cooking place frozen dumplings directly in boiling salted water.
Enjoy cooking!

On her last visit my sister brought me a huge amount of apricots from Austria, to my joy! We had to use them soon, since they normally turn bad fast. Of course we started with eating some of them 🙂 . And the Kids had lots of fun throwing the seeds all over our garden.
