Special meals call for elegant desserts like this. Sweet plums are halved then tucked inside a pretty pastry pocket.—Martha Voss, Dickinson, North Dakota

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons 2% milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 medium black plums, halved and pitted
1 cup water
3 tablespoons butter
Melted butter and cinnamon-sugar

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in milk and egg just until blended. Divide into six portions.
On a lightly floured surface, pat each portion of dough into a 5-in. circle. Place a plum half on each circle. Gently bring up corners of dough to center; pinch edges to seal.
In a Dutch oven, bring water and butter to a boil. Carefully add dumplings. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a dumpling comes out clean. Serve warm with pan juices, melted butter and cinnamon-sugar.
