Delete. Although I found a bunch of recipes, I could not find any sources that talk about this Pennsylvania Dutch recipe (e.g. its origins, its popularity, etc). Therefore, this should be deleted pursuant to WP:GNG and WP:NOTRECIPE. Any discussion about the general use of potatoes as a filling should be included at Potato#Culinary uses. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 17:40, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up comment: North America, your ability to find relevant sources is amazing. Well done! I am changing my vote to keep based on the sources provided below. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 21:13, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – A historical topic that comfortably passes WP:GNG. Source examples include, but are not limited to: ^[1], ^[2], ^[3], ^[4], ^[5], ^[6], ^[7]. Since the dish is centuries-old, additional offline sources are very likely available. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 20:49, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
