Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar, plus 1 1/2 cups
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1/4 cup milk
1 quart fresh or frozen blueberries
2 cups water
Vanilla ice cream or fresh cream, for serving

Directions

Stir flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, baking powder, and salt together into a medium bowl. Cut butter into dry ingredients, using a pastry cutter or fork. Add milk to form dough. Set dumpling dough aside.

In a large saucepan, combine berries, 1 1/2 cups sugar, and water and bring to a boil. Drop dumplings into hot boiling berries by the tablespoonful. Cover pot, reduce heat to low, and cook slowly for 20 to 30 minutes. Do not remove the lid before 20 minutes has passed, and do not stir dumplings. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh cream.

Ok but Nothing Special
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I am surprised by the five star rating on this. It is ok and I enjoyed it but will not make again. The general agreement in... the family is that there are a lot of other recipes that would have been a better use of our blueberries. Like others, I but the sugar to less than one cup which is plenty. This essentially is a hot blueberry sauce with doughy dumplings. I that is what you want go for it. If you try this you need to have good blueberries. trying this with frozen poor quality blueberries is likely to be a real problem.Read more

only if you screw up are these not wonderful!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I cannot understand how anyone could not give these a 5 star rating. The directions are easy to follow; the outcome is... scrumptious. These are extremely easy to make, and sinfully delicious. If you are having to spit them out, you did something wrong. We make these frequently, and they are heavenly ... even though they are so sinful! Read more
