About Knedle sa Sljivama

Plum knedle are round dumplings with a soft potato dough and a whole plum at the centre. JELENAO84’s family rendition has a sweet breadcrumb coating and a lightly browned, oven-finished surface.

The dough gives each dumpling a substantial, tender body around the juicy fruit. Toasted breadcrumbs contribute a contrasting texture, while sugar balances the tartness of the plum.

These dumplings can be served warm, with extra sweet crumbs around them. Their round shape conceals the fruit inside, giving each portion a soft potato exterior and a bright, fruity centre.
