Step 1
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees and roast the potatoes until knife tender, about 45 minutes.
Step 2
Cool the potatoes completely. Once cooled, force potatoes through a potato press.
Step 3
Add butter, flour, egg, sour cream and salt and cinnamon. Knead well until a smooth dough emerges, being careful not to overwork the potato dough.
Step 4
Form the dough into 5-6 even pieces, depending on how many plums you are using. Flatten each dough ball and wrap it around a pitted plum.
Step 5
Drop dumplings in a pot of boiling water and wait for them to float. Once they float, cook for another 5 minutes.
Step 6
While the dumplings are cooking, melt the butter and toast the breadcrumbs in a pan with 1 tablespoon of butter. When the crumbs turn an even golden brown throughout, turn off the heat and add the sugar and cinnamon. Stir to combine.
Step 7
Remove the dumplings from the water, coat with the remaining melted butter and roll in toasted breadcrumbs.
