3 oz sugar
2 eggs, separated
2 T sour cream

Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each section quickly to make a round of pastry. Peel and core the apples and fill the center of each round with them, add the jam and almonds. Wrap the pastry into a square, pinching the top to seal. Glaze with beaten egg white and bake at 350°F for 40 minutes in lightly greased baking pan. Serves 4.

Silken German Breakfast Dumplings
with Maple Syrup
(an egg-based breakfast entree)
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup whole milk
8 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup flour
4 large eggs
Combine 1/2 cup butter, milk, 8 Tablespoons unsalted butter, and salt in a medium-large saucepan. Bring to a full boil over medium heat. Add flour all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the pan. Continue to cook and stir mixture another minute to eliminate excess moisture. Remove from heat source and let it set for a minute or two to cool slightly, stirring occasionally. Then, beat in eggs, one at a time, by hand with a wooden spoon. Be sure batter is smooth before adding next egg. Set aside.
In a separate large kettle, bring water to a boil. Add a little salt to water. Drop batter by scooping off a teaspoon into the boiling water. Let dumplings cook for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on size. Lift with a slotted spoon; drain.
Serve in bowl or in individual ramekins. Drizzle with warmed, pure maple syrup and sprinkle with maple sugar (optional). Mix maple sugar with minced walnuts or pecans if desired.
Note: Do not double this recipe. It is best to set one batch aside in bowl while you prepare a second and third batch, but it's okay to boil batches all at once.
