Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 bags (16 ounces each) frozen dark sweet cherries (unthawed)
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
Ice cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine cherries and 1/3 cup sugar in a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high; simmer rapidly until liquid is syrupy, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine cinnamon and remaining tablespoon sugar. In another bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt; gradually stir in milk, mixing just until a wet dough forms.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Spoon tablespoons of dough (you should have about 18) over simmering fruit in skillet; sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar.
  • Cover skillet; simmer very gently until dumplings are set and dry to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve warm, with ice cream, if desired.
  • VARIATION
  • To make this recipe with frozen berries, replace the cherries with 2 packages (16 ounces each) blueberries, blackberries, or strawberries (or a combination).
