Don’t worry, if you like or use (cringe) the word dumplin I will try not to hold it against you. Just please, please, don’t use it around me! Ok?
Even though Paula named this sweet, delicious dessert Blueberry Dumplin’s (agh!) I tried it. Why? Mainly because I needed a quick dessert, have a surplus of blueberries and lovely Paula has never led me astray. That is why I love her so much! I am quite sure that this dessert would be great with blackberries or even raspberries. I was really loving the dumplings so I may try to double them next time.
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar, plus 1 ½ cups
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
½ cup (1 stick) butter, softened
4 tablespoons milk
1 quart fresh or frozen blueberries
2 cups water
Vanilla ice cream or fresh cream, for serving
Stir flour, the 1 tablespoon sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Cut butter into dry ingredients, using a pastry cutter or fork. Add milk to form dough. Mix berries, the 1 ½ cups sugar, and water together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Drop the dumplings into hot boiling berries by the tablespoonful. Cover pot, reduce heat, and cook slowly for 20-30 minutes. Do not remove lid before 20 minutes has passed. Serve with vanilla ice cream or fresh cream.
Serves 6

I am definitely making this dessert in the near future
Ohhh Did this bring back memories! My mom made this a lot in the summer when her blackberry bush was full of berries. The blueberries sound good, but I'd really like to make it with blackberries to remind me of my mom.
PS: I made your chicken noodle soup last night and it's delicious! Thanks for posting such yummy recipes.
Cherie,I should have known. What on earth was I thinking when I wrote this post! I don't think I will be coming around for a while!
April, I am so glad you tried the soup and liked it! Oh, and I agree blackberries would be wonderful!
Katie-I really want to try this it looks so good! I'll let ya know when I do!!:)
Michelle, thanks so much for your comments. I am glad you liked the cowpoke chili and cabbage soup. Freezing soup is awesome...it has been a real lifesaver for me!
I say Dumpling with a G! haha... This looks SO yummy! Can't wait to try it... Gotta love Paula... (And all that BUTTER!) :) A girl after my own heart... :)

I cant wait to try this this summer when our blackberries get ripe. I made so many things with them last summer and this looks like it would be great. The kids love to go pick them and come in and make something with them for "free".
You are too funny!! The dessert looks awesome!!
