STOVE TOP BLUEBERRY GRUNT



Stove Top Blueberry Grunt image

This oddly named dessert promises juicy berries topped with biscuity dumplings, and there is no need to turn on the oven. But it can easily become a soggy, bland mess. Do not use frozen blueberries here, as they will make the filling watery. You will need a clean kitchen towel for this recipe.

Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 cups fresh blueberries, divided
½ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons white sugar

  • Mix 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 2 tablespoons white sugar together in a small bowl; sprinkle over dumplings.
