Blueberry Grunt Recipe

Welcome back to my kitchen! Today, I’m excited to share a delightful and rustic dessert that’s perfect for any occasion: Blueberry Grunt. This dish combines juicy blueberries with tender dumplings, creating a comforting and delicious treat. Let’s dive into the details!

Ingredients

For the blueberry mixture:

• 4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries 🫐
• 1 cup granulated sugar 🍬
• 1/2 cup water 💧
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice 🍋
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 🌿

For the dumplings:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour 🌾
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar 🍬
• 1 tablespoon baking powder 🧂
• 1/2 teaspoon salt 🧂
• 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed 🧈
• 1 cup milk 🥛

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Blueberry Mixture

In a large skillet or saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, water, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. 🫐🔥

Step 2: Make the Dumplings

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold butter and cut it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 🥄

Step 3: Form the Dough

Gradually add the milk to the flour mixture, stirring just until a soft dough forms. 🥛

Step 4: Cook the Blueberry Grunt

Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the simmering blueberry mixture. Cover the skillet or saucepan and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and the blueberry mixture is thickened. ⏳🍲

Step 5: Serve

Serve the blueberry grunt warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired. 🍨
