STOVE TOP BLUEBERRY GRUNT



Stove Top Blueberry Grunt image

This oddly named dessert promises juicy berries topped with biscuity dumplings, and there is no need to turn on the oven. But it can easily become a soggy, bland mess. Do not use frozen blueberries here, as they will make the filling watery. You will need a clean kitchen towel for this recipe.

BLUEBERRY GRUNT



Blueberry Grunt image

A Colonial American dessert consisting of stewed fruit topped with drop biscuit dough that steams like a dumpling. This is usually made in a cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven on the stove top and in its traditional form, the topping never browns. The word "grunt" refers to the sound the fruit makes while cooking. This is a slow-cooker version.

MARITIME BLUEBERRY GRUNT



Maritime Blueberry Grunt image

I spent a little over seven years in the Maritimes and had the opportunity to participate in the blueberry harvest a couple of times. One year I asked the farmer if he could pay me my wages for the day in blueberries. He laughed and gave me a lifetime of berries to take home! I shared the berries with friends and neighbours and followed the suggestion of a local Maritimer. She told me to boil the berries with water, nutmeg, sugar and cinnamon and top with my favourite dumpling recipe. So I did! Pulled out Grandma's 1932 Cook Purity Book cookbook and made her recipe for dumplings. I thoroughly enjoyed the combination!

Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. In a small bowl, beat the milk and egg together. Stir egg mix into flour mix to form a soft dough.
  • 3. Turn the cooker to HIGH and remove the lid. Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls on top of the hot blueberries. Cover and cook until the topping is firm and toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 30 minutes. The topping will not brown.
  • 4. Turn the cooker off, remove the lid, and let it rest for 10 mins. Wonderful like that or even better over vanilla ice cream!!
