Directions


1

  • Check through the blueberries for any bad berries and discard. Combine the blueberries, water,
    and sugar in a medium size skillet.

  • Cook over medium high heat until boiling. Turn heat down and simmer uncovered for 20
    minutes.

  • While berries are simmering, combine the flour, baking powder, orange peel, cinnamon, and salt
    in a bowl and stir to mix evenly.

  • Add the milk and stir just enough to moisten the dry ingredients. The dough will be fairly
    thick.

  • After the blueberries have simmered for 20 minutes, drop the topping mixture a tablespoonful
    at a time on top of simmering berries in the skillet.

  • Cover the skillet and cook for 15 minutes or until the dumplings are done. Do not remove the
    cover during the cooking time.

  • When the grunt is done, spoon it out of the skillet on to a plate, serving while it is still
    warm.
