Ingredients

For the berry mixture:

  • 8 cups fresh or IQF frozen blackberries
  • 3/4 cup sugar (or to taste)
  • 1/2 cup red wine or water
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest

For the dumpling dough:

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk (or a mixture of plain yogurt and skim milk or water), plus more as needed
  • 2 tablespoons sugar mixed with 1 teaspoon cinnamon

For the garnish:

Directions

Place the berry mixture in a deep 8 or 9-inch skillet and bring to a simmer over moderate heat. While berries are cooking make the dumpling dough: In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir in the melted butter. Add enough of the buttermilk to form a soft, sticky dough that is slightly wetter than a biscuit dough. Using a soup spoon, spoon the dough over the fruit, forming small dumplings. Sprinkle the dumplings with the cinnamon sugar. Tightly cover the skillet with the lid or a sheet of foil and steam mixture over medium-low heat, without opening lid, until the dumplings set and the surface is dry when touched with a fingertip, about 15 minutes. To serve: Spoon the warm grunt into serving bowls, and top with whipped cream, ice cream or sweetened yogurt.

    I took this to a Wild Game dinner, because I needed to bring something that was wild, I picked blackberries to bring. Most people had never seen blackberries with dumplings on top of the syrup. I made something like this when I was younger, but the dumplings had a different texture. It was a hit. I did add a little more sugar.

    I was looking for something quick and easy that would go well with ice cream using some fresh blackberries we had picked and I found it. Not only is it quick but it is delicious. My husband said that I could make this again anytime I wanted to.
