Roll the dough using a rolling pin (about ½ inch) and cut squares about 3 x 3 inches.
If the dough is still sticky add some more flour and knead the dough again using your hands.
Place the plum in the middle of the squares and form the dumplings around the plum. Make sure the plum is completely covered with the dough.
Bring a pot of water (with a little salt) to a boil.
Place the dumplings in the boiling water and when the water boils again, turn the heat down and let them simmer for about 10 minutes or until they float on the surface.
Carefully stir the dumplings, if they stick to each other or to the bottom of the pot. Drain in a colander.
Melt the butter in a pan and roast the breadcrumbs until golden brown.
Roll the dumplings in the roasted breadcrumb mix.
To sweeten the dumplings, mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle it over the dumplings. You can also use powdered sugar.
