Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 700 g potato(s), waxy
  • 220 g flour
  • 1 egg(s)
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • some cinnamon sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Boil the potatoes with their skins on. Peel the potatoes and press them through a potato or spaetzle press. Add the flour, egg, and a pinch of salt and knead into a smooth dough. If the dough is still too sticky, add more flour so it doesn’t stick to the surface when you roll it out. Roll the dough into 2 cm thick strands, cut into small pieces, roll them into balls, and flatten them slightly with the tines of a fork. Add the gnocchi in batches to a pot of boiling salted water and let them simmer until they float to the top (approx. 2-3 minutes). Then remove with a slotted spoon. Melt the butter in a pan and fry the gnocchi on both sides until golden brown. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and enjoy. Tip: Also delicious with applesauce.
