Ingredients

• 2 pounds Russet potatoes
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 large Egg whites
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 0 as needed Low-fat cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Peel and quarter the Russet potatoes.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes until smooth and let them cool slightly.

Step 5

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, all-purpose flour, egg whites, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.

Step 6

Mix until a smooth, soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.

Step 7

Lightly flour a clean surface and divide the dough into four equal parts.

Step 8

Roll each part into a log about 1 inch in diameter and cut into 1-inch pieces to form dumplings.

Step 9

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 10

Reduce heat to a simmer and gently drop the dumplings in batches into the water. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 11

Cook the dumplings until they float to the surface and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 12

Use a slotted spoon to remove the dumplings and transfer them to a plate sprayed lightly with low-fat cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 13

Serve the dumplings warm, perhaps with a light gravy or sauce of your choice.
