Mix the warm milk, yeast, and half of the sugar and let stand for 8 minutes.
Knead a soft dough with the flour, egg, half of the butter, and salt.
Let the dough rise for 60 minutes.
Divide the dough into 6 pieces, round them, and rest for 20 more minutes.
Place the milk, remaining butter, remaining sugar, and a little salt in a wide pan.
Arrange the dough balls in the pan, cover, and cook over low heat for 24 minutes.
Rest for 5 minutes without opening the lid.
Serve the dampfnudeln hot with vanilla sauce.
💡 Tip: Do not lift the lid during cooking; if steam escapes, the dampfnudeln collapse on top and the caramel-like bottom crust does not fully form.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve dampfnudeln as a dessert with vanilla sauce and optional sour cherry compote.
