We went over for dinner at a Polish friend's house and they served these for dinner. They are fluffy, lightly sweetened buns of steamed dough filled with blueberries. When I investigated the recipe, all I could find was a Czech version. I tweaked it to be just like my Polish friend's recipe. I hope you like it! You need a steamer for this. This recipe looks wildy complicated, but it really isn't...just try it once- I could eat 10 of these things!

ingredients

2 ¹⁄₂ - 3 cups all-purpose flour
³⁄₄ cup skim milk
4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon yeast (or 1 envelope instant rise yeast)
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup blueberries
melted butter
cinnamon sugar

directions

Mix together all dry ingredients in bowl of stand mixer.
Mix together milk, egg, and oil in 2 cup measure, add to flour mixture.
Knead using dough hook until a very sticky dough forms.
Scrape sown the sides of the bowl several times during kneading.
Scrape down the bowl to 'neaten up' the dough ball and let rest/rise in a VERY LOW oven, the lowest possible setting-- for 1 hour-- or until double in bulk.
Pinch off golf ball sized lumps of dough with floured hands and flatten into a disc, wrap about 6-8 blueberries in the dough, pinching it together, forming a neat ball. Place in steamer (I placed mine on squares of wax paper- don't know if this is absolutely necessary).
Let rise again in low oven for about 20-30 minute.
Steam over boiling water for 8 minutes.
Spoon over some melted butter and cinnamon sugar-- enjoy!
