Blueberry Grunt With Nutmeg Sauce image

Grunts are said to have gotten their peculiar name from the biscuit-like topping that grunts as it rises and collapses into the hot filling. This is another recipe from my Aunt Nelda. I have not tried it for dietary reasons but wanted to share it because it looks great. Be forewarned, I'm completely guessing about how long this takes to make.
