Blueberry Grunt Recipe
Directions
  • 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.
