This is a sweet twist on a yeast bread (also Gugelhupf or Kugelhupf) baked in Germany, Austria, and Central Europe. It's similar to the Italian Panettone and is traditionally baked in a fluted tube pan, but a Bundt pan works as well.

Sweet dark plums are wrapped in a potato dough, and boiled before rolling in sweetened toasted bread crumbs. My Austrian grandmother made these delicious dessert dumplings for us every fall. These take some time to make, but to me, they're well worth the effort.
