Now pour the yeast mix on the egg yolks and let the mix rest for 5 minutes until tiny bubbles appear on the surface. Add warm butter and knead into an even dough.
Place the bowl into the oven and leave for 30 minutes at dough proving 1. Remove and cover with a tea towel.

Close the dough circles above the filling and roll into a round shape. Leave for 15 minutes with the seam facing downwards on a floured surface, covered with a moist tea towel.
Place the blueberry yeast dumplings on a perforated baking tray lined with baking paper and steam at 100°C for 20 minutes.
In the meantime, you could prepare the vanilla sauce: Cut the vanilla pod open (lengthwise) and remove the pulp. Dissolve the starch in a small cup of water. Add half of the milk, sugar, starch, vanilla pod and -pulp into a pot and bring to a boil while constantly stirring.
Whisk the other half of the milk and the egg yolks until fluffy. Pour slowly into the warm milk mix and briefly bring to a boil. Remove from the hot plate and allow it to cool down.
Serve immediately.
