Shape the dough into a log and cut into 10 pieces on the spot. With floured hands, form 8 small balls from 2 pieces.

Shape the remaining 8 pieces on a floured surface into rolls about 25 cm long. Knot the dough strand.

Place a small ball in the center as a head. Press raisins as eyes and almond kernels as beak into the dough.

Place spaetzle on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Mix egg yolk and 1 tsp water and brush the birds with it. Bake in the oven for 18-20 min.
