Method · 50 min
- Cut the rolls into cubes.
- Put the flour in a bowl and mix it with the salt. Crumble the yeast into the flour.
- Beat the eggs in lukewarm milk, pour them into a bowl with flour and make a smooth dough, into which we add the sliced rolls.
- Sprinkle the surface of the dough with plain flour to prevent it from drying out, and let it rise for approximately 45–60 minutes.
- After rising, divide the dough into four or six pieces, depending on how big you want the dumplings to be. Smaller dumplings will be easier to handle.
- Roll out the doughnuts and let them rise for another 15 minutes.
- Then put them in boiling water and cook for 16 minutes. You can tell that the dough is well risen if the dumplings do not sink to the bottom, but float nicely.
- Place the dumplings on a rack or line, pierce them with a two-pronged fork or skewer, turn them over, pierce them again, and cut them into two halves with a thread.
