If you love warm desserts that combine fruit with soft, fluffy dough, then this simple Canadian treat should be on your list! ✨ "Blueberry Grunt" might sound like a strange name, but it’s basically stewed blueberries topped with dumplings that soak up all the delicious flavors and melt in your mouth. 😋💜
Ingredients 📝
For the blueberry filling 🍇:
3 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen – both work! 😉)
½ cup sugar 🍚
½ cup water 💧
1 teaspoon lemon juice 🍋
½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional, but adds a lovely flavor! 🥰)
For the dumplings 🍞:
1 cup flour 🌾
1 teaspoon baking powder 🎂
¼ teaspoon salt 🧂
1 tablespoon cold butter, cut into small pieces 🧈
½ cup milk 🥛
Instructions 👩🍳👨🍳
1. Prepare the blueberry filling 🍇:
In a medium saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, water, lemon juice, and cinnamon. 🍲
Heat over medium heat until it starts to boil 🔥, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. ⏳
2. Make the dumplings 🥣:
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. 🥄
Add the butter and rub it into the flour with your fingertips until it looks like coarse crumbs. 🏖️
Gradually pour in the milk and mix until a soft dough forms (but don’t overmix! 🚫🤚).
3. Cooking 🍳:
Using a spoon, drop small spoonfuls of dough directly onto the hot blueberry mixture. 🥄🍇
Cover the pan tightly and let the dumplings steam over low heat for 15-20 minutes (don’t lift the lid! 🚫⏳).
4. Serving 🍽️:
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream 🍦 or a dollop of whipped cream. 🥄 The sweet and tangy flavors combined with the soft dumplings are absolutely irresistible! 🤤💜
Try it out, and trust me, this will become one of your favorite desserts! 😉👌🔥
