7 min07:00 - 6
Heat the butter in a pan for 3 minutes until it smells nutty.
3 min03:00 - 7
Toss the boiled pierogi with the butter and serve with cinnamon sugar.
💡 Tip: Add the flour gradually; if the dough stays soft, the dumplings puff when boiled, while too much flour makes them firm like gnocchi.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve pierogi leniwe warm with browned butter, cinnamon sugar, and optional sour cream.
